By the light of the silver moon I will challenge you to a duel
You’ll have a gun
And I will take the bullet
By the light of the moon
By the light of the distant stars I have followed you from afar
You didn’t know
And I would not believe it now
By the light of the distant stars
In the heat of the burning sun we have withered down as one
You took my hand
And I would gladly follow
In the heat of the sun
Now by the side of the dusty road our shadows fight in the moonlit glow
We’ll have a gun
And I will take the bullet
By the side of the dusty road
Don’t start damning the damsel who won’t stop counting her woes
Don’t start damning the damsel who won’t be peaceful as she goes
I will not be pushed around
I will not be sacrificed
Look closer and we still are bound
Body and a lie
Not the kind who can pretend
Not the kind who will depend
Not the kind to fake and bow
Not the kind if this is how
To be a woman.
