Some people get a cheap laugh breaking up the speed limit

Scaring the pedestrians for a minute

Crossing up progress driving on the grass

Leaving just enough for room to pass

Sunday driver never took a test

Oh yeah, once upon a time in the west



Yes, it's no use saying that you don't know nothing

It's still gonna get you if don't do something

Sitting on a fence that's a dangerous course

Oh, you could even catch a bullet from the peace-keeping force

Even the hero gets a bullet in the chest

Oh yeah, once upon a time in the west



Mother Mary your children are slaughtered

Some of you mothers ought to lock up your daughters

Who's protecting the innocenti

Heap big trouble in the land of plenty

Tell me how we're gonna do what's best

You guess once upon a time in the west



Once upon a time in the west...
