The Clark McLane Band - A Horse and a Badge Lyrics

Well a horse and a badge is no match
For the courage and honesty
Of she who could no longer
Pretend not to see
And tonight she's gaining more ground
On that flatland deputy
They who can take all they want
And she can't understand
Nobody owns the air or water
Who could own the land?
Heaven and Earth created
Clothes and money makes the man
Tonight she feels no remorse
For the deed that she did
While he ponders by his fire
If his duty is a sin
One walks for justice
The other for salvation
And now the trail is growing narrow
From the ones who've turned around
Badges, names, and land claims
Mean less on westward ground
And when they finally locked eyes
Alas they both laid down
