[Verse 1]
Death bells are ringing in Wichita town
Two brothers will meet when the sun's going down
Blood's thicker than water poor mother cries
Which son will live which son will die
[Verse 2]
Jimmy Laredo a man with a dream
Sent his young brother Johnny to old Abilene
To bring back his true love by name Katy Lee
The girl he attended his bride to be
[Verse 3]
The trip was a long one they both came to know
That sometimes from friendship a sweet love would grow
He's bringing her back in a new wedding gown
And there'll be a show down in Wichita town
[Verse 4]
Jimmy's not worried his six gun's tied down
And no one outdraws him in Wichita town
But can he do it? Can he kill his kin?
Blood's thicker than water his ma cries again
[Verse 5]
The stage made it stop at the Last Chance Saloon
The crowd all stepped back to give both brothers room
Young Johnny stepped down there was fear in his eyes
But for love of Katy he'd gladly die
