I rode out of | |
Kansas City, going south to | |
MexicoI was running, dodging danger, left the girl that | |
I loved so | |
Far behind lay | |
Kansas City and the past that | |
I had earned | |
Twenty notches on my six gun, marked the lessons | |
I had learned | |
Many times | |
I sold my fast gun for a place to lay my head | |
Till the nights began to haunt me by the men that | |
I left dead | |
Couldn't stand it any longer with this life that | |
I'd begunSo | |
I said goodbye to | |
Jeannie and became a running gun | |
I rode into | |
Amarillo as the sun sank in the west | |
My thoughts in | |
Kansas City and the girl that | |
I love best | |
As I smiled and kissed her gently and then turned away to go | |
Said I'd send for her to meet me when | |
I reached old | |
MexicoI had barely left the saddle and my foot just touched the ground | |
When a cold voice from the shadows told me not to turn around | |
Said he knew about my fast gun, knew the price paid by the law | |
Challenged by a bounty hunter, so | |
I turned around to draw | |
I knew someday | |
I'd meet him, for his hand like lightning flashed | |
My own gun stood in leather as his bullet tore its path | |
As my strength was slowly fading, | |
I could see him walk away | |
And I knew that where | |
I lie tonight, he too must lie some day | |
Now the crowd is slowly gathering but my eyes are growing dim | |
And my thoughts return to | |
Jeannie and the home that we had planned | |
Oh, please tell her, won't you, mister, that she's still the only one | |
But a woman's love is wasted when she loves a running gun | |
Running gun, running gun |
