THRESHING FLOOR words & music by Bill Mallonee

There were 3 riders silhouetted
in a sunset painted gold
They've been tracking you for so many months
been on your trail since you were born

chorus:
I came to get what's mine
I came to render yours
Meet me at high noon
On the threshing floor

Horse & rider in hot pursuit
Do Love & Justice kiss at the final bar?
i could trace their outline up there in the stars
now it's crashing into real life
and you're just who you are

chorus:
I came to get what's mine
I came to render yours
Meet me at high noon
On the threshing floor

there ain't nothing you can give
nothing you can take
not all the gold in Ft. Knox
could pay for your mistake
all the diamonds in the world
locked up in a vault
just a prayer flung into the air
and hope you don't get caught

chorus x2
I came to get what's mine
I came to render yours
Meet me at high noon
On the threshing floor
