Tougher Than Leather Willie Nelson

[Verse 1]
He was Tougher Than Leather
And he didn't care whether
The sun shined or not
When a young kid from Cow Town
Wanted a showdown
And he was careless or just maybe forgot

[Verse 2]
But he died in the gunfight
Blinded by sunlight
Never draw when you're facing the sun
And old Tougher Than Leather
Just carved one more notch on his gun

[Verse 3]
And when he turned to go
A beautiful maiden knelt down
Where her dead sweetheart lay
And on his breast, placed a rose
While the townspeople stared in dismay

[Verse 4]
And old Tougher Than Leather
Should have known better
But he picked up the rose in his hand
And the townspeople froze
When his hands crushed the rose
And the rose petals fell in the sand
