Shotgun And A Pistol

Lyrics

That mornin' a lady locked arms with a shotgun
 And the pistol rode west with the sun
 Now the outlaws of Tombstone and the outlaws forever
 Know that death is the way of the gun
 They fought side by side, undefeated each time
 Speed of their guns were the same
 From dark city Kansas to wild Arizon
 All outlaws alike knew their name
 A shotgun, a pistol, known the world over as
 The two biggest guns in the west
 But the whole town of Tombstone knew the friendship was shakin'
 And they wondered which one was the best
 Only a shootout could settle the question
 That lay heavy on everyone's mind
 Whiskey and loose talk and their love for a woman
 Made the shoot out a matter of time
 That mornin' a lady locked arms with a shotgun
 And the pistol rode west with the sun
 Now the outlaws of Tombstone and the outlaws forever
 Know that death is the way of the gun
 The day of the doom had been set by the town
 That lived up to it's blood-thirsty name
 Some said the pistol, some said the shotgun
 Some said the town was to blame
 But some outlaws named Clanton and the O.K Corral
 Changed history and canceled the game
 When the shootout was over and the outlaws lay dyin'
 Old Tombstone the silent was shamed
 That mornin' a lady locked arms with a shotgun
 And a pistol rode west with the sun
 Now the outlaws of Tombstone and the outlaws forever
 Know death is the way of the gun
