Devil's Wind

A devils wind blew in
the stars covered the sky
smoke filled the air, not a soul to be heard
a ghost town full of fright
a wild heart on the loose
a gun slinger he'll shoot
his love is barren, broken with an arrow
on an eagles wing he flie's
a devils wind is blowing in
one's man love, barren among the crazy hearts
now he flie's..

Reading this reminded me of the lyrics to "Big Iron" by the late Marty Robbins. Nice write, but it can use several spelling corrections: The present tense third person singular form of the verb "to fly" is "flies", not "fly's". Also, "barron" is correctly spelled "barren". In your fourth line, if the ghost town is scared, the correct word you want is "fright". What you have there now is the cargo a plane, train, or truck carries.
