Tonight when I ride outta here
|
They will curse this shotgun town
|
Where the whisky flows like water
|
And the law means nothing to anyone
|
|
I am headin' for a showdown
|
And when the church-bell chimes nine times
|
There's a crazy gamblers' final bet
|
It makes the local undertaker smile
|
You wanted me to settle down, maybe raise a family
|
I remember that I said:"matrimony ain't for me"
|
|
The only thing that you said was:
|
"lay down your star with your gun belt
|
And let me be your sweetheart
|
I don't want you to get killed"
|
|
I can't do without your kiss,
|
I can't do without your kiss
|
There's no doin' without your kiss
|
|
A fearless outlaw always lies
|
Sweatin' in his bed
|
While the guns are always loaded
|
Under a pillow, under his head
|
And when the rooster calls one moment
|
At the final crack of dawn
|
Like the whistle from a long gone train
|
While the folks are gatherin' around
|
|
I can't do without your kiss,
|
I can't do without your kiss
|
There's no doin' without your kiss
|
|
And in the cathouse when we made it
|
You said: "I'm always yours for free"
|
After a day and night together
|
How in hell could I have disagreed
|
|
I can't do without your kiss, I can't do....
