Some people get a cheap laugh breaking up the speed limit
  Scaring the pedestrians for a minute
  Crossing up progress driving on the grass
  Leaving just enough for room to pass
  Sunday driver never took a test
  Oh yeah, once upon a time in the west
  Yes, it's no use saying that you don't know nothing
  It's still gonna get you if don't do something
  Sitting on a fence that's a dangerous course
  Oh, you could even catch a bullet from the peace-keeping force
  Even the hero gets a bullet in the chest
  Oh yeah, once upon a time in the west
  Mother Mary your children are slaughtered
  Some of you mothers ought to lock up your daughters
  Who's protecting the innocenti
  Heap big trouble in the land of plenty
  Tell me how we're gonna do what's best
  You guess once upon a time in the west
  Once upon a time in the west...
