lirik lagu st. catherine's child - the stranger
in the dead of winter rode a stranger one cold day
he sat upon the hilltop and told n0body his name
he kept a watchful eye and hoped he’d leave the way he came
but the chimney billowed smoke and made it clear he meant to stay
when my father wasn’t home you’d find him in the village square
he could bridle any stallion, he could answer any prayer
when the stranger rodе down main street he reminded еveryone
what he couldn’t k!ll with kindness he could settle with his gun
one january day my father knocked upon his door
he wondered while he stood there where he’d seen the man before
you can ask the sheriff said the stranger with a smile
you best be moving on, i plan to stay here for a while
the frost began to thaw, the stranger made good on his word
by march the next farm over lost three cattle from their herd
the saloon was out of whisky and the bank had lost its safe
you best believe my father knew exactly who to blame
one day my father cleaned his gun and packed up for the road
my mother wept and wailed, my sister begged him not to go
he said “keep the front gate open, i’ll be back for dinner time”
but i could tell he knew that he’d come back to us in pine
as he walked down into town the summer sun up in the sky
he called the stranger’s name and drew his pistol from his side
somewhere in the shadows silver spurs announced his stride
he stepped into the sun and with his barrel he replied
my father met his eyes, the bullet soared right past his head
a cry rang out around the square and the sheriff fell down dead
he aimed up at the stranger, five rounds ringing in his ears
and sent his last three bullets out into the open air
the sun was barely setting, there was nowhere left to run
no sheriff there to save him, no more bullets in his gun
he tried again to reason but the stranger wanted blood
and in the village square he k!lled my father where he stood
ever since that say we’re just a ghost town on its knees
the winter frost arrives and the stranger finally leaves
if you see him come to town with silver spurs and wicked smile
make sure your guns are loaded cause he’ll be here for a while
yeah he’ll be here for a while
yeah he’ll be here for a while
