Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Raiders scum everywhere
Mercenaries, murderers
Settlers in fear, they plea
At the edge of ash and stone
They hide their kids from the door
And pray the night moves on
[Pre-Chorus]
But the wind knows his name
Old scars, steady aim
When the trouble comes crawling in
He don’t bend, he don’t break
[Chorus]
Only Honored man in This lands
Only Honored man in This lands
Old General, take my hand
He'll wipe scum throughout the Commonwealth
(only Honored man)
(Only Honored man in This lands)
[Verse 2]
He walks that broken highway
With a coat full of dust
A hard-eyed saint with a rifle
And a promise people trust
If the wolves come for the weak
He’ll meet 'em face to face
And every coward that he buries
Leaves a little room for grace
[Pre-Chorus]
But the wind knows his name
Old scars, steady aim
When the trouble comes crawling in
He don’t bend, he don’t break
[Chorus]
Only Honored man in This lands
Only Honored man in This lands
Old General, take my hand
He'll wipe scum throughout the Commonwealth
(only Honored man)
(Only Honored man in This lands)
[Bridge]
Let the jackals circle wide
Let the firelight shake
He stood up in the ruin
So the broken could be safe
When the last black banner falls
And the dust turns gold again
They’ll sing of one hard soul
And the road he made for them
[Chorus]
Only Honored man in This lands
Only Honored man in This lands
Old General, take my hand
He'll wipe scum throughout the Commonwealth
(only Honored man)
(Only Honored man in This lands)
Raiders scum everywhere
Mercenaries, murderers
Settlers in fear, they plea
At the edge of ash and stone
They hide their kids from the door
And pray the night moves on
[Pre-Chorus]
But the wind knows his name
Old scars, steady aim
When the trouble comes crawling in
He don’t bend, he don’t break
[Chorus]
Only Honored man in This lands
Only Honored man in This lands
Old General, take my hand
He'll wipe scum throughout the Commonwealth
(only Honored man)
(Only Honored man in This lands)
[Verse 2]
He walks that broken highway
With a coat full of dust
A hard-eyed saint with a rifle
And a promise people trust
If the wolves come for the weak
He’ll meet 'em face to face
And every coward that he buries
Leaves a little room for grace
[Pre-Chorus]
But the wind knows his name
Old scars, steady aim
When the trouble comes crawling in
He don’t bend, he don’t break
[Chorus]
Only Honored man in This lands
Only Honored man in This lands
Old General, take my hand
He'll wipe scum throughout the Commonwealth
(only Honored man)
(Only Honored man in This lands)
[Bridge]
Let the jackals circle wide
Let the firelight shake
He stood up in the ruin
So the broken could be safe
When the last black banner falls
And the dust turns gold again
They’ll sing of one hard soul
And the road he made for them
[Chorus]
Only Honored man in This lands
Only Honored man in This lands
Old General, take my hand
He'll wipe scum throughout the Commonwealth
(only Honored man)
(Only Honored man in This lands)
Style of Music
Heroic melodic country with driving mid-tempo four-on-the-floor kick, snapping snare, and steel guitar licks over acoustic strums; verse rides sparse guitar and low bass, pre-chorus adds handclaps and a rising fiddle figure, chorus hits with stacked harmony vocals and a big open-road lift. Close-mic lead in verses, gang doubles on the hook, delay throws on the title phrase, dust-up risers and a cymbal swell into each chorus, bright punchy mix with a weathered Western edge., country
