No Glory in the West
Orville Peck
[Verse 1]
They say Paris is dead
Lived through London and drank through Memphis
The things you live by were once just a guess
And there ain't no glory in the west
No, there ain't no glory in the west

[Verse 2]
Hard to think on your feet
Tired of beggin' 'em just to compete
Shoot to win can feel so bittersweet
But you take what you can get
'Cause there ain't no glory in the west

[Chorus]
Blazin' on ahead
Burnin' through it
Comin' down the bend
Nowhere left to go
Goin's all we know
Ridin' past the best
And there's still no rest
And there's still no rest
There ain't no glory in the west
[Verse 3]
What's a boy to do?
Hit the road with a dollar or two
Haunted by what he knows he can't do
Gets it off his chest
'Cause there ain't no glory in the west

[Chorus]
Burnin' on ahead
Blazin' through it
Runnin' blind again
Nowhere left to go
Goin's all we know
Ridin' past the best
And there's still no rest
And there's still no rest
And there's still no rest
There ain't no glory in the west

[Verse 4]
"Count your blessings," they'll say
And after each midnight begins a new day
But don't place your bets on a word that they say
They'll put your life to rest
'Cause there ain't no glory in the west
No, there ain't no glory in the west
There ain't no glory in the west
