I love the barroom ballad feel to this song. Great harmonies, too - very "real", with some rough edges left to keep things from sounding too polished. I wish the guitars were a bit louder, though.
This is an original, and can be picked up on itunes, amazon, or our personal favorite cdbaby.com. Lyrics below:
My friends come now and hear me, come join me in our song.
We celebrate another fine attack
Those nobles thought they could resist, but they never had a chance
and their spoils now sit safely in the back
Chorus
Raise your pistols (Raise your pistols)
Raise your Glass (Raise your Glass)
We Rule the road far as the eye can see
We band of fearsome highwaymen
fear nothing on this path
we are the masters of our wicked destiny.
We strike fear in all who see us, and that fear is well deserved.
We've no pity for the fools who cross our path.
Let no man test our patience, let no man besmirch our pride
or by god they'll feel the fury of our wrath
Many men have tried to stop us, and they all lie in a grave.
Let that be warning lest you try and test your skill.
We've left behind the memories of all we ever loved
There is nothing left except our iron will.
So if you see us coming, you might as well give up
We won't hurt you if you give us what we seek.
But if you try to fight us, we'll have to put you down
Either way our take is guaranteed.
