===============================
Intro
Verse 1:
When Liberty Valance Rode To Town
The Women Folk Would Hide,
They'd Hide
When Liberty Valance Walked Around
The Men Would Step Aside
Because The Point Of A Gun Was The Only Law
That Liberty Understood
When It Came To Shootin' Straight And Fast
He Was Mighty Good
Veerse 2:
From Out Of The East A Stranger Came
A Law Book In His Hand,
A Man
The Kind Of A Man The West Would Need
To Tame A Troubled Land
'Cause The Point Of A Gun Was The Only Law
That Liberty Understood
When It Came To Shooting' Straight And Fast
He Was Mighty Good
Chorus 1:
Many A Man Would Face His Gun
And Many A Man Would Fall
The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance
He Shot Liberty Valance
He Was The Bravest Of Them All
Verse 3:
The Love Of A Girl Can Make A Man
Stay On When He Should Go,
Stay On
Just Trying To Build A Peaceful Life
Where Love Is Free To Grow
But The Point Of A Gun Was The Only Law
That Liberty Understood
When The Final Showdown Came To Pass
A Law Book Was No Good
Verse 4:
Alone And Afraid She Prayed That He'd
Return That Fateful Night,
Ah, That Night
When Nothing She Said Could Keep Her Man
From Going Out To Fight
From The Moment A Girl Gets To Be Full Grown
The Very First Thing She Learns
When Two Men Go Out To Face Each Other
Only One Returns
Chorus 2:
Everyone Heard Two Shots Ring Out
The Shot Made Liberty Fall
The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance
He Shot Liberty Valance
He Was The Bravest Of Them All
The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance
He Shot Liberty Valance
He Was The Bravest Of Them All
