Intro Lyrics:
Butch Cassidy, the audacity.
its not him hes not robbing trains
he’s in control got ahold of the reigns
He’s gunslinging Robin Hood
Only does his Robbin for good.
Takes what he needs and spends it all
Blind to the fact its all his fault
Hot on his trail it wont be long
But he still dont know what he did wrong
Butch Cassidy, the audacity.
