I'll tell you a story that's never been told
Of rapin' and killin'
And government gold
The place Arizona
The year '84
Sit back and I'll tell you some more
A thirty year captain
Just earnin' his pay
Was movin' a shipment of bullion that day
While men without honor were waitin' to test
The unwritten code of the west
It's the code of the west
You must honor your neighbor
The code of the west
To your own self be true
The code of the west
You must do unto others
Do unto others before they do it unto you
Sweet yellow, sweet yellow
Sweet tangerine gold
You make a man fevered you make a man bold
So the town of Delores that morning in May
Was in for an infamous day
Of rapin' and killin'
And government gold
The place Arizona
The year '84
Sit back and I'll tell you some more
A thirty year captain
Just earnin' his pay
Was movin' a shipment of bullion that day
While men without honor were waitin' to test
The unwritten code of the west
It's the code of the west
You must honor your neighbor
The code of the west
To your own self be true
The code of the west
You must do unto others
Do unto others before they do it unto you
Sweet yellow, sweet yellow
Sweet tangerine gold
You make a man fevered you make a man bold
So the town of Delores that morning in May
Was in for an infamous day
