[00:02.72]Well, I wish I had a shotgun, I’d tie it to my side
[00:08.80]Never be without the power to make a man do right
[00:14.66]Steady on my shoulders, standing in the wind
[00:20.82]I’ve been down before, but I won’t be down again
[00:28.03]And if I had a pony, how fast I would ride?
[00:34.16]Yippie-tiy-iy-ay, with the shotgun at my side
[00:39.80]An outlaw to my foes, a hero to my friends
[00:46.11]I’ve been down before, but I won’t be down again
[00:53.04]And the days would be so easy, the nights would be so slow
[00:59.10]I’d turn my pony south, boys, and ride to Mexico
[01:05.14]My pockets full of silver to gamble or to lay
[01:11.33]’Cause I’ve been down before, but I won’t be down again
[01:21.87]But I ain’t got no silver, no pony, no gun
[01:28.01]All I got’s this hammer like old John Henry swung
[01:33.73]Been 10 years on this chain gang
[01:37.22]One more day, and then
[01:40.13]I’ve been down before, but I won’t be down again
[01:47.41]Now standing on this rock pile of four and 20 men
[01:53.94]I’ve been down before, but I won’t be down again
[02:01.48]I’ve been down before, but I won’t be down again
