Lyrics

TWO GUN SID

Storm crows gather in the Matewan skies
Trouble comes rolling down the railroad ties
A steel fist closes round the union heart
A two gun sheriff takes the union's part

| Two gun Sid, you ain't the only law in town
| Those Baldwin boys are bound to shoot your body down
| For standing on the side of the union cause
| Two gun Sid, you've got plenty of gall
| Standing in the way of the company law

You bury fathers and you bury sons
Who risked their lives for a dollar a ton
Go on strike and the thugs move in
The company's bettin' that you just can't win

Chorus

* My, my a steel grey sky
* Frowns upon the valley
* Lo, lo the Reaper smiles
* Countin' up the tally

Mr. Felts gonna try to break that strike
He's got twelve guns just itchin' to fight
Guess he never counted on the union's wrath
Felts never should've crossed Two Gun's path
