| lyric | 1. Sunrise, this is the last day I'll ever see;
out in the courtyard they’re readey for me.
But I got to my Lord with no fear
’cos I did what I did for Maria.
As I rode into town with the sun going down,
all the windows were barred,
there was no one around.
For they knew that I’d come
with my hand on my gun
and revenge in my heart for Maria.
My dearest departed Maria.
Ref.: Take an eye for an eye
and a life for a life
and somebody must die
for the death of my wife.
Yes, I did what I did for Maria.
I did what I did for Maria.
2. Laughter echoed across from the end of the street,
there was a man I was burnin’ to meet
and my mind was so calm and so clear,
as I took my revenche for Maria.
An he felll to the ground
raisin’ dust all around,
but I knew he was dead
long before he went down.
It was quick, it was clean
made it easy on him,
which is more than he did for Maira
when he did what he didi to Maria. |
