[00:00.67]Matador - Halford
[00:38.91]The gold ran dry in '54 so with a broken hand
[00:43.92]He packed his bags and headed south across the Rio Grande
[00:49.71]The town was mean and brutal for a gringo filled with strife
[00:54.98]He was about to end it all when some thing changed his life
[01:00.69]A bullfight in the street went bad the beast made to escape
[01:06.08]And in a feat of danger with his jacket as a cape
[01:11.61]He stared into the eyes of death and bought it to his knees
[01:17.28]A cry went up from in the crowd at last he felt appeased
[01:23.32]Then all the people were screaming
[01:25.01]Having the time of their lives
[01:28.49]Some said they thought they were dreaming
[01:30.11]But he was right there before their eyes
[01:34.18]He had the crowd they cheering right in the palms of his hands
[01:39.33]With one or two of them leering
[01:42.05]At what they never could comprehend
[01:46.16]Matador heart of the brave
[01:51.44]Suit of life never to save
[01:56.630005]Matador in for the kill
[02:02.4]Statuesque he's standing still
[02:18.81]El Toro charged he danced with death
[02:21.5]And every place he's go
[02:24.19]The reputation lead the way through all of Mexico
[02:29.65]The Greatest of the Greats they said
[02:32.45999]One never to be missed
[02:35.24]But all good things come to an end
[02:37.92]And so it was with his
[02:41.01]A moments hesitation and he felt the gore go deep
[02:46.03]His life flashed in slow motion as the crowd begin to weep
[02:51.56]The country was in mourning as they buried him that day
[02:55.74]But memories live for ever like the ghost of him they say
[03:03.15]The people said he's The Greatest
[03:05.95]Look at his flair and his style
[03:08.42]No one can stand in his foot steps
[03:11.23]Or follow him by a mile
[03:14.25]The crowd was in such a frenzy
[03:16.75]He had the air of a saint
[03:19.45]Control was part of the fever
[03:22.44]Together with such restraint
[03:26.33]Matador graced by The Lord
[03:31.48]Cheating death plunging the sword
[03:36.78]Matador here to annul
[03:42.29001]With respect praise for the bull
[04:33.91]There was a sense of dramatic
[04:36.28]That in the blink of an eye
[04:38.99]It could turn into traumatic
[04:41.66998]Would he be alive or die
[04:44.68]He was the man of the hour
[04:47.3]And master of his domain
[04:48.24]He was bestowed and empowered
[04:53.37]He had the key to each city he reigned
[04:56.77]Matador heart of the brave
[05:02.22]Suit of life never to save
[05:07.97]Matador in for the kill
[05:12.98]Statuesque he's standing still
