Gareth--

Also appears in 'Worried Man Blues'--

High sheriff and the po-lice, ridin' after me (x3)
And I feel like I gotta travel on.

And in "Bad Man Staggerlee"

High sheriff turned to the dep'ty,
Says, 'Who can that man be?'
Says 'Boss, you best keep quiet, cause that's Richard Staggerlee,
Ain't he a bad man?'

And other verses, my all-time fave being a personal contribution:

Staggerlee dashed out the back do'
But the High Sheriff got the jump;
Says, "I don't care how fast you draw,
You can't beat a sawed-off pump,
And if you lose, learn to lose."
