[Verse 1]
He sat me down in the desert sand
With a comb and scissors in his hand
As he cut my hair, he said, "I'm the best!
The Fastest Barber in the West!"
I asked him where he'd gone to school
He said, "I studied in Liverpool
I met four kids called The Beatles there;
I'd give my life just to cut the hair of Ringo."
(Ringo, Ringo)
[Verse 2]
I met him next in the old town square
A voice was calling numbers there
The crowd was tense, listening hard
Each one had some beans and a card
The voice called "5," then "14"
They covered each number with a lima bean
Five beans in a row means a bullet in the head
'Cause way out west you could wind up dead playin' Bingo
(Bingo, Bingo)
[Verse 3]
Later that day about high noon
I saw him walk into the town saloon
With a dance hall girl they called Coquette
Looked to me like he was getting Stinko
(Stinko, Stinko)
He sat me down in the desert sand
With a comb and scissors in his hand
As he cut my hair, he said, "I'm the best!
The Fastest Barber in the West!"
I asked him where he'd gone to school
He said, "I studied in Liverpool
I met four kids called The Beatles there;
I'd give my life just to cut the hair of Ringo."
