I'll tell you a story that's never been told Of rapin' and killin' And government gold The place Arizona The year '84 Sit back and I'll tell you some more A thirty year captain Just earnin' his pay Was movin' a shipment of bullion that day While men without honor were waitin' to test The unwritten code of the west It's the code of the west You must honor your neighbor The code of the west To your own self be true The code of the west You must do unto others Do unto others before they do it unto you Sweet yellow, sweet yellow Sweet tangerine gold You make a man fevered you make a man bold So the town of Delores that morning in May Was in for an infamous day You don't draw with the stranger If he's faster than you You've sung your last ditty You've kissed your last pretty And played yer last hand if you do When fate is the dealer you raise or you call A chance takin' man plays the cards as they fall A map worth a killin' is worth trackin' down So off to Integrity town The code of the west ain't some words on a page You just naturally know it when you come of age You eat when you're hungry, you drink when you're dry You look every man in the eye It's the code of the west when the boys talk of women The code of the west what you know you don't tell The code of the west a man soaps his own saddle Brands his own cattle and some of his neighbour's as well If you're buildin' fences then I ain't for hire You get me for nothin' and I'll bring the wire You patch up my windows, I'll plumb up your doors If you scratch my back I'll scratch yours It's the code of the west you must honour your neighbour The code of the west to your own self be true The code of the west you must do unto others Do unto others before them others do it unto you A yellow haired woman is early to bloom Her laughter is roses Her smile is perfume But the child of the lawman can die on the vine With no man to take of her wine It's the code of the west You don't leave for tomorrow The code of the west What can be done today The code of the west It's a true fact of livin' What so lovingly given will lovingly come back yer way The desert was losing its fight with the sun As Cole stopped for water at hole number 1 Just what was he chasin' he'd sure like to know But he still had him two holes to go The code of the west Show your backside to evil The code of the west Give the devil his due The code of the west You must do unto others Do unto others before they do it unto you Now rapin' and killin' Ain't really so bad But stealin' ole Blue Now that made sheriff John mad You don't help yourself to the eggs in the nest Of the man with the badge on his vest For tumbleweeds tumblin' from boulder to stone Your permanent address is places unknown You eat when your hungry You drink when your dry If wishes were eagles you'd fly
