[Verse 1]
El Cattivo rides lonely through the night
He killed a child two days ago
Now El Cattivo is on the run
From the child's father who is searching for him
When the rascal suns himself the next morning
He spots the pursuer on the horizon
He ambushes in a small wood
And he shoots him down from his ambush
[Chorus]
And smiles 'cause he knows
Evil always wins
Yes, that's what a cowboy has to be like
Filthy, cowardly and mean
Hey-ya-ho, hey-ya-ho
Waoh-oh
[Guitar Solo]
[Chorus]
And he smiles 'cause he knows
Evil always wins
Yes, that's what a cowboy has to be like
Filthy, cowardly and mean
Hey-ya-ho, hey-ya-ho
Waoh-oh
[Verse 2]
In the evening, the villain arrives in a small town
He assaults two old women because he's out of money
He gambles away his small loot in a saloon
Then a blind man gets into trouble with him
In the night, he stops by the house of pleasure
Where he becomes witness of a brawl
When one of the brawlers falls to the ground
He kicks him as hard as he can and then swipes all his money
[Chorus]
And smiles 'cause he knows
Evil always wins
Yes, that's what a cowboy has to be like
Filthy, cowardly and mean
Hey-ya-ho, hey-ya-ho
Waoh-oh
[Outro]
Ha-ooh, ha-ooh
Ha-ooh, ha-ooh
Ha-ooh, ha-ooh
