Not on My Watch is a rancher's fury at the rustlers cutting his fence line — a hard-driving outlaw anthem about generations of blood and sweat poured into land that somebody thought they could steal from in the dark. Defiant, gritty, and ready for a fight. Original by Saddle Storms.

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]

Found the fence torn down at dawn

Tracks that don't belong out here

Somebody thought they could waltz right in

And take what my family's held so dear

[Verse 2]

I've bled for every inch of this land

Worked it sunup to sundown

You think you can cut a wire in the dark

And walk away without a sound?

[Pre-Chorus]

Well I've got news for whoever did this

This ain't just dirt, this ain't just cattle

This is blood and sweat and generations

And I'm ready for a fight, ready for the battle

[Chorus]

Not on my watch, not on my land

Not while I'm still standing here

You picked the wrong ranch to mess with

And that much oughta be clear

I don't care how dark the night is

I don't care how far you run

Not on my watch, not while I'm breathing

This fight's already won

[Verse 3]

My granddad built this fence line

With his own two calloused hands

Now I'm out here at first light

Making sure it still stands

[Chorus]

Not on my watch, not on my land

Not while I'm still standing here

You picked the wrong ranch to mess with

And that much oughta be clear

I don't care how dark the night is

I don't care how far you run

Not on my watch, not while I'm breathing

This fight's already won

[Bridge]

Hank's got my back, the crew's got mine

We'll set the traps, we'll hold the line

This land's seen worse than a few cut wires

It's survived droughts, it's survived fires

[Final Chorus - bigger, defiant]

Not on my watch, not on my land

I'll fix what's broken, brick by brick

Not on my watch, not while I'm breathing

And I don't back down, and I don't quit

[Outro]

Not on my watch...

Not ever…
