Gather the horses boy
Summon the men
Say your last goodbyes to the women and children
There is fighting here to be done

Houses of pleasure and houses of pain
Down here in the low they seem one and the same
*And there is a battle here to be won*

You've got to ride on
Let the people say what they want
You've got to ride on
Let the people say what they want about you

*Lock*
*Stock and barrel shot*
*One smoking gun and enough anger in you to hurt someone*
And there is a battle here to be won

You've got to ride on
Let the people say what they want
You've got to ride on
Let the people say what they want

*I get the message and it breaks my heart in two*
*I get the message and it breaks my heart in two and I try to*

*Ride on*
*Let the people say what they want*
*You've got to ride on*
*Let the people say what they want*

*You've got to ride on*
*Let the people say what they want*
*You've got to ride on*
*Let the people say what they want*

*You've got to ride on*
*(Ride on)*
*Let the people say what they want*
*You've got to ride on*
*(Ride on)*
*Ooh*
