Description

Hey there serfs and nobles, it's time for another Crankbox Rehearsal Series installment! Feast your ears on a new genre we can only describe as "cool sheriff funk" - another fresh-off-the-presses rehearsal recording, and onwards 'til showtime. What's that, you ask? Showtime for what? Why, we have an upcoming show at Toronto's Central Bar on June 19th! Take a gander at the event details HERE: www.facebook.com/events/207394862715509 And for those of you who REALLY want to test our mettle, a new rehearsal recording will be released every day until the 19th! This shows the reason that we are in it (namely, to win it). So attend this channel tomorrow! Lyrics: Been settin' up flags on the edge of my town (on the edge of my town, on the edge of my town) Then I sit in the lee so they're pointed at me, and I ready my gun 'cause there ain't no deputy I know nobody dares to start cutting them down (start cutting them down, start cutting them down) And that fits my soul like the boots with the holes, they've seen mud and sand and the world turn cold Like it or hike, I am the law A man in black was seen riding west (was seen riding west, was seen riding west) A couple less people in this peaceful town once the rider from the east started gunning them down You can find him asleep in his black leather vest (in his black leather vest, in his black leather vest) Beneath the weeping willow tree 'round Ten Mile Bend, I ain't sorry to say he ain't coming back again Like it or hike, I am the law Like it or hike, I am the law Now the reason I don't have enemies Is 'cause I don't put them in custody My judgment falls like the Holy See And that's how you make a quiet city Put a couple more flags on the edge of my town (on the edge of my town, on the edge of my town) I must be getting old, 'cause I ain't getting young, but youth don't matter to the barrel of a gun Not even the kids dare to take them down (dare to take them down, dare to take them down) It's a lost little town where the little ones play, and thanks to me, it's gonna stay that way Like it or hike, I am the law Like it or hike, I am the law Like it or hike... I am the law
