Sting - High Plains Drifter

Anytime yuh 'ear di desert wind whistling

Clear di way, di lawman ridin'

Bwoy mussi tink seh ah Sunsplash or Sting

Come call out di drifter inna early morning, hmm

Di only time mi perform inna early morning

Is wen mi gun ah guh do some killin'

Bwoy yuh test di drifter, mek sure yuh 'ave wing

If yuh don’t ‘ave nuh wing, gunshot going to sing

Di gun weh mi ah fyah name 'nah save a ting'

Stay one thousand miles, shot di head off ah pin

Nuff deejay ah talk seh dem waan curl mi skin

Di last one seh dat, I plain kill ‘im

Roun' ‘im neck ah weh mi put piece ah string

Den find a tree an' fling it ova di limb

Nuff man ah guh dead, bwoy skull ah guh bore

If unu test di lawman for sure

Wen yuh guh sleep, I will kick off yuh door

Mi nuh wait fi yuh wake, mi buss di 404

Stop fram chuck it an' gwaan like yuh brave

I will put yuh pon a rocket, send yuh up ah space

Do anything fi put yuh inna yuh grave

Beat yuh like dog, cain yuh like slave

Bwoy mussi tink seh ah Sunsplash or Sting

Come call out di drifter inna early morning, hmm

If unu mek mi perform inna early morning

Is wen mi gun ah guh do some killin'

High Plains Drifter, dat’s what mi name

Murder Butch Cassidy, murder John Wayne

I sight Jesse James ah ride on a train

I use di Winchester an' mi shot out ‘im brain

Di people in di town ah seh mi insane

Di wickedest lawman weh eva ride di range

High Plains Drifter nah seek nuh fame

Mek di town calm, mek di town tame

Bwoy mussi tink seh ah Sunsplash or Sting

Come call out di drifter inna early morning, hey

Di only time mi perform inna early morning

Is wen mi gun ah guh do some killin'

MI riding through di canyon, mi riding alone

Mi shot all bwoy through dem cellular phone

Mi murder Billy the Kid an' di one Al Capone

Yuh head gwine crush out like an ice cream cone

Mi murder outlaw an' put ‘im onda tombstone

Ride in a chariot wid Madame Simone

Bwoy mussi tink seh ah Sunsplash or Sting

Come call out di drifter inna early morning, hmm

Di only time mi perform inna early morning
