When the bottle is empty
And my head is unoccupied
My luck just ran out
Cause the day Marty Robbins died
Well my horse, got divorced
And my pigs they all cried
My big arm it won't fire
Cause the day Marty Robbins died
Oh Marty when you rode into El Paso
Wearing your white sports coat
With a big arm on your hip
The story of your life you wrote
Like mother Maybelle and Hank
In that great Prayer in the sky
All I do is sit on my rocking chair and stare
Cause the day Marty Robbins died
Cause the day Marty Robbins died
Cause the day Marty Robbins died
