No Glory in the West

作曲 : Orville Peck/Duncan Hay Jennings

作詞 : Orville Peck/Duncan Hay Jennings

They say Paris is dead

Lived through London and drank through Memphis

The things you live by were once just a guess

And there ain’t no glory in the west

No there ain’t no glory in the west

Hard to think on your feet

Tired of begging them just to compete

Shoot to win can feel so bittersweet

But you take what you can get

’Cause there ain’t no glory in the west

Blazin’ on ahead - burning through it

Coming down the bend - nowhere left to go, goin’s all we know

Ridin’ past the best – and there’s still no rest

And there’s still no rest

There ain’t no glory in the west

What’s a boy to do?

Hit the road with a dollar or two

Haunted by what he knows he can’t do

Gets it off his chest

’Cause there ain’t no glory in the west

Burnin’ on ahead - blazing through it

Running blind again – nowhere left to go, goin’s all we know

Ridin’ past the best – and there’s still no rest

And there’s still no rest

And there’s still no rest

There ain’t no glory in the west

Count your blessings they’ll say

And after each midnight begins a new day

But don’t place your bets on a word that they say

They’ll put your life to rest

’Cause there ain’t no glory in the west

No there ain’t no glory in the west

There ain’t no glory in the west
