Hes the uninvited underdog, howling at the moon
Hes a bended knee, praise the Lord his time is coming soon
He dont ride the grain or take the wave, he beats on a different drum
They told him no a thousand times, you're headed straight for hell
But through all the flame and dirt and shame, they couldn't tell
Theres a dark horse rising shadow on the run,
Theres an uphill climbing bullet in a loaded gun
(Aint no turning back, hes already gone, aint no turning back, hes already gone)
Hes gone crazy trying to blaze a trail nobody's traveled down
Born n bred in small towns, chasing a triple crown
With a high price on his head, a wanted kinda man
The odds are down the bets are in, his name dont ring a bell
Cause his soul aint up for sale
Hes a dark horse rising shadow on the run,
Hes an uphill climbing bullet in a loaded gun
(Aint no turning back, hes already gone, aint no turning back, hes already gone)
I tried to tell you I was coming back around
Echoes from the mountain on a bareback kinda sound
I tried to warn you but your time is running out
Hes a dark horse rising shadow on the run,
Hes an uphill climbing bullet in a loaded gun
