Bullets In The Gun

They used to call me lightening

I was always quick to strike

Had everything I own

In the saddles on my bike

I had a reputation

For never staying very long

Just like a wild and restless drifter

Like a cowboy in a songI met a dark haired beauty

Where they lay the whiskey down

In southern Arizona

In a little border town

She had to dance for money

In that dusty old saloon

I dropped a dollar in the jukebox

Played that girl a tune, yeahNever see it comin'

It just hits you by surprise

It's that cold place in your soul

And the fire in her eyes

Makes you come together

Like wild horses when they run

Now the cards are on the table and

The bullets in the gunShe was sittin' on my lap

We still had shots to kill

When a man pulled up

Who owned the bar

In a Cadillac Deville

He grabbed her by her raven hair

And threw her on the floor

Said no free ride for the cowboys

That ain't what I pay you forShe jumped up and grabbed my pistol

Stuck it in the fat man's back

Said open up the safe

And put your money in the sack

Then tied his hands behind him

And put a blindfolded on his eyes

Said if you're dumb enough to chase us man

You're dumb enough to dieNever see it comin'

It just hits you by surprise

It's that cold place in your soul

And the fire in her eyes

It makes you come together

Like wild horses when they run

Now the cards are on the table and

The bullets in the gun, yeahWe rode across the border

Down into Mexico

When you're runnin' from the law

Ain't that where everybody goes

We came to a town

With a name I couldn't spell

She gave me what I came for

In that Mexican motelI woke to the sound of sirens and

The sound of running feet

There were fifty Federales

Locked and loaded in the street

She grabbed my 44

I grabbed the money in the sack

She kissed me for the last time

And we headed out the backEvery gun was on us

And every heartbeat pounded

The only thing that's left to do

When they got you all surrounded

She fired that old pistol

But we didn't stand a prayer

Money hit the gravel

Man, bullets filled the airYou never see it comin'

'Til it hits you by surprise

It's that cold place in your soul

And the fire in her eyes

Makes you come together

Like wild horses when they run

Now the cards are on the table and

And the bullets in the gun

The bullets in the gun

The bullets in the gun

The bullets in the gun
