Freddy Tönnesen - The Gunfight at O.K. Corral Lyrics

In the town of Tombstone, where the silver runs deep,
The Earp brothers stood, their promise to keep,
With Doc Holliday, the gambler so bold,
They faced the Cowboys, in the stories retold.
Virgil, Wyatt, Morgan by name,
Lawmen determined to end the Cowboys' reign.
At the O.K. Corral, the legend was born,
With bullets and blood on that October morn,
When the dust had settled and the gun smoke cleared,
Three Cowboys lay dead, their fate sealed here.
The Clantons and McLaurys, tough as they come,
Didn't heed the warning, now their time was done,
With pistols drawn, they made their stand,
But the Earps and Doc, they had the upper hand.
The law of the west, in a thirty-second fight,
Marked by courage in the fading light.
At the O.K. Corral, the legend was born,
With bullets and blood on that October morn,
When the dust had settled and the gun smoke cleared,
Three Cowboys lay dead, their fate sealed here.
The aftermath lingered, the town was split,
Some called it justice, others a misfit,
Virgil was ambushed, Morgan met his end,
But Wyatt sought vengeance, no law to defend.
Years have passed, but the tale remains,
Of that fateful day and the bloody plains,
The Earps and Doc, forever enshrined,
In the annals of history, their names aligned.
Echoes of gunfire, in Tombstone they ring,
A fight for justice, a wild west fling.
At the O.K. Corral, the legend was born,
With bullets and blood on that October morn,
When the dust had settled and the gun smoke cleared,
Three Cowboys lay dead, their fate sealed here.
At the O.K. Corral, where the brave made their stand,
The law and the outlaw, hand in hand,
A tale of the west, both brutal and grand,
Forever remembered, in this rugged land.
