(The Man Who Shot) Liberty Valance

When Liberty Valance rode to town

The women folk would hide, they'd hide

When Liberty Valance walked around

The men would step aside

Because the point of a gun

Was the only law that Liberty understood

When it came to shooting, straight and fast

He was mighty good

From out of the east a stranger came

A law book in his hand, a man

The kind of a man the West would need

To tame a troubled land

'Cause the point of a gun

Was the only law that Liberty understood

When it came to shooting, straight and fast

He was mighty good

Many a man would face his gun and many a man would fall

The man who shot Liberty Valance

He shot Liberty Valance

He was the bravest of them all

The love of a girl can make a man

Stay on when he should go, stay on

Just trying to build a peaceful life

Where love is free to grow

But the point of a gun

Was the only law that Liberty understood

When the final showdown came to pass

A law book was no good

Alone and afraid she prayed that he'd

Return that fateful night, ahh, that night

When nothing she said could keep

Her man from going out to fight

From the moment a girl gets to be full grown

The very first thing she learns

When two men go out to face each other

Only one returns

Everyone heard two shots ring out

The shot made Liberty fall

The man who shot Liberty Valance

He shot Liberty Valance

He was the bravest of them all

The man who shot Liberty Valance

He shot Liberty Valance

He was the bravest of them all
