I Did What I Did For Maria

Sunrise, this is the last day that I'll ever see

Out in the courtyard they're ready for me

But I go to  my Lord with no fear

'Cause I did what I did for Maria

As I rode into town

With the sun going down

All the windows were barred

There was no one around

For they knew that I'd come

With my hand on my gun

And revenge in my heart for Maria

My dearest departed Maria

Take an eye for an eye

And a life for a life

And somebody must die

For the death of my wife

Yes I did what I did for Maria

I did what I did for Maria

Laughter echoed across from the end of the street

There was the man I was burnin' to meet

And my mind was so calm and so clear

As I took my revenge for Maria

And he fell to the ground

Raising dust all around

But I knew he was dead

Long before he went down

It was quick it was clean

Made it easy on him

Which is more than he did for Maria

When he did what he did to Maria

Take an eye for an eye

And a life for a life

And somebody must die

For the death of my wife

Yes I did what I did for Maria

I did what I did for Maria

Sunrise, this is the last day that I'll ever see

Out in the courtyard they're ready for me

But I go to my Lord with no fear

Cause I did what I did for Maria

Take an eye for an eye

And a life for a life

And somebody must die

For the death of my wife

Yes I did what I did for Maria

I did what I did for Maria

Take an eye for an eye

And a life for a life

And somebody must die

For the death of my wife

Yes I did what I did for Maria

I did what I did for Maria

Take an eye for an eye

And a life for a life
