Some people get a cheap laugh breaking up the speed limit
Scaring the pedestrians for a minute
Crossing up progress driving on the grass

Leaving just enough room to pass
Sunday driver never took a test
Oh yeah, once upon a time in the west


Yes it's no use saying that you don't know nothing
It's still gonna get you if you don't do something

Sitting on a fence that's a dangerous course
Oh, you could even catch a bullet from the peace-keeping force
Even the hero gets a bullet in the chest

Oh yeah, once upon a time in the west

Mother mary your children are slaughtered

Some of you mothers ought to lock up your daughters
Who's protecting the innocenti
Heap big trouble in the land of plenty

Tell me how we're gonna do what's best
You guess once upon a time in the west


Oh yeah, once upon a time in the west
Oh yeah, once upon a time in the west
Oh yeah, once upon a time in the west


Once upon a time in the west
