Lyrics

Well the new sheriff sent me a letter  
Yes the new sheriff sent me a letter  
He said, "Come up and see me dead or alive,  
Come up and see me dead or alive".  
  
Well it's a hard road dead or alive  
It's a hard road dead or alive  
Well it's a hard road dead or alive  
It's a hard road dead or alive  
  
Well I really don't like your hard rock hotel (yeah) sheriff  
Well I really don't like your hard rock hotel, sheriff  
Dead or alive, no sheriff  
Dead or alive, no sheriff  
  
Well it's a hard road dead or alive  
And it's a hard road dead or alive  
And it's a hard road dead or alive  
And it's a hard road dead or alive  
  
Well he even sent me my picture  
(Oh yeah, and hello)  
He even sent me my picture  
(Yeah yeah)  
  
Hey, how do I look boy (wonderful)  
Dead or alive?  
How do I look boy (sweet) dead or alive?  
  
It's a hard road dead or alive  
It's a hard road dead or alive  
Well, it's a hard road dead or alive  
And it's a hard road dead or alive  
  
Dead or alive  
Dead or alive  
Dead or alive  
Dead or alive  
Dead or alive  
Dead or alive
