Lyrics for The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance by James Taylor:
| | | Artist: | James Taylor |
| | Album: | Why Here | | Track: | The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 76 | | | | Lyrics: | when liberty valance came to town
the women folk would hide
they'd hide
when liberty
valance walked around
the men would step aside
because the point of a gun
was the
only law that liberty understood
when it came to shooting
straight and fast
he was
mighty good
from out of the east a stranger came
a law book in his hand
a man
the kind of man
the west would need to ease a troubled land
because the point of a
gun
was the only law that liberty understood
when it came to shooting
straight and
fast
he was mighty good
many a man would face his gun
and many a man would
fall
the man who shot liberty valance
he shot liberty valance
he was the bravest of
them all
now the love of a woman can make a man
stay on when he should go
stay
on
just trying to build a peaceful life
where love is free to go
but the point of a
gun
was the only law that liberty understood
when it came to shooting
straight and
fast
he was mighty good
alone and afraid she prayed that he'd
return that
fateful night
that night
when nothing she said could keep her man
from going out to
fight
but the point of a gun
was the only law that liberty understood
when the final
showdown came to pass
a law book was no good
out in the sun two shots rang
out
the shots made liberty fall
the man who shot liberty valance
he shot liberty
valance
he was the bravest of them all
