(The Man Who Shot) Liberty Valance Burt Bacharach - Hal David
When Liberty Valance rode 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
The kind of a man the west would need to tame a troubled land 'Cause 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.
The love of a girl can make a man stay on when he should go, stay on Just trying to build a peaceful life where love is free to grow 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
Alone and afraid she prayed that he'd return that fateful night,
ahh that night
When nothing she said could keep her man from going out to fight
When two men go out to face each other, only one returns
Everyone heard two shots ring out, the shot made Liberty fall
The man who shot Liberty Valance, he shot Liberty Valance,
he was the bravest of them all.
The man who shot Liberty Valance, he shot Liberty Valance,
