Lyrics
He rode in from the west with an eye for a dollar to make
He pitched us a sell about healing and oil from a snake
The barkeep he warned him but the man did not comprehend
How strangers round here disappear like straw in the wind
Too young but in love when she met him in some northern town
He treated her good until the sun and the whiskey went down
Did the bruise on her face test the patience of all of her kin
Or do strangers round here disappear like straw in the wind
Oh Tim runs his mouth when he drinks since his wife passed away
But he's good to the kids and the crops that he sells are fair trade
But a travelin' man had enough and took a pipe to his chin
That travelin' man disappeared like straw in the wind
Oh if the mouth of this river could talk here's what it would say
If you come here with good in your heart you'll be on your way
Oh but I'm not the one here who judged another man's sin
Or made strangers round here disappear like straws in the wind
Oh strangers round here disappear like straw in the wind
Writer(s): Wesley J. Bayliss, Jason Cope
