Song Lyrics
He too must lie some day, said he knew about my fast gun Running, when a cold voice from the shadows told me not to turn around
Now a crowd is slowly gathering but my eyes are growing dim, couldn t stand it any longer with the life that i d begun
Now a crowd is slowly gathering but my eyes are growing dim, knew the price paid by the law, many times i sold my fast gun for a place to lay my head
Many times i sold my fast gun for a place to lay my head, i had barely left the saddle and my foot just touched the ground
Oh please tell her, so i said good-bye to jeannie and became a running gun
couldn t stand it any longer with the life that i d begun
Couldn t stand it any longer with the life that i d begun, he too must lie some day
My thoughts in kansas city and the girl that i love best, so i said good-bye to jeannie and became a running gun
i rode into amarillo as the sun sank in the west
That she s still the only one, i rode out of kansas city Running, left the girl that i loved so far behind lay kansas city and the past that i had earned
so i said good-bye to jeannie and became a running gun
And my thoughts return to jeannie and the home that we had planned, so i said good-bye to jeannie and became a running gun
now a crowd is slowly gathering but my eyes are growing dim
Now a crowd is slowly gathering but my eyes are growing dim, but a woman s love is wasted when she loves a running gun
As my strength was slowly fading, twenty notches on my six gun marked the lessons i had learned, 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 mexico
Knew the price paid by the law, till the nights began to haunt me by the men that i left dead, so i turned around to draw
my own gun stood in leather as his bullet tore its path
Knew the price paid by the law, he too must lie some day
i had barely left the saddle and my foot just touched the ground
For his hand like lightning flashed, i was running dodging danger
He too must lie some day, won t you mister
As my strength was slowly fading, i knew someday i d meet him, challenged by a bounty hunter
I knew someday i d meet him, i could see him walk away Running, oh please tell her
That she s still the only one, won t you mister
many times i sold my fast gun for a place to lay my head
and my thoughts return to jeannie and the home that we had planned
twenty notches on my six gun marked the lessons i had learned
Now a crowd is slowly gathering but my eyes are growing dim, my thoughts in kansas city and the girl that i love best Gun, won t you mister
As my strength was slowly fading, when a cold voice from the shadows told me not to turn around
So i turned around to draw, and my thoughts return to jeannie and the home that we had planned Robbins, said he knew about my fast gun
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 mexico
I could see him walk away, going south to mexico
Twenty notches on my six gun marked the lessons i had learned, now a crowd is slowly gathering but my eyes are growing dim
Twenty notches on my six gun marked the lessons i had learned, till the nights began to haunt me by the men that i left dead
I had barely left the saddle and my foot just touched the ground, knew the price paid by the law, so i said good-bye to jeannie and became a running gun
Going south to mexico, i knew someday i d meet him, but a woman s love is wasted when she loves a running gun
I was running dodging danger, knew the price paid by the law Running, said he knew about my fast gun
Oh please tell her, he too must lie some day
i rode into amarillo as the sun sank in the west
That she s still the only one, i could see him walk away
For his hand like lightning flashed, so i said good-bye to jeannie and became a running gun Marty, i rode into amarillo as the sun sank in the west
