The Man In Black

(albüm: Little River Band - 1975)

He just rode in from Nevada
As the leaves turned brown
With the dust from off the desert
He drifted into town
It was easy to see he was a gambler
And the ladies all knew what he was after

He was the man in black
Nobody knew why he came
The man in black
Does anyone here know his name?

He made his bed down by the river
There he spent his days
One by one all the ladies fell beneath his gaze
They knew very well they were in danger
But they were under the spell of a stranger

He was the man in black
Nobody knew why he came
The man in black
Does anyone here know his name?

Can you tell me where he's hiding and
Was there a young woman with him?
She is my daughter
I've come to fetch her
And when I find her
I swear that man's gonna die

He was the man in black
Nobody knew why he came
The man in black
Does anyone here know his name?

He was the man in black
Nobody knew why he came
The man in black
Does anyone here know his name?

He was the man in black
Nobody knew why he came
The man in black
Does anyone here know his name?
