Shoulder Holster Elton John

[Verse 1]
Now, it was just like Frankie and Johnny
And it was just like Stagger Lee
Dolly Summers was a simple girl
From a midwest family
With a stucco home and her own Mustang
And a charge account at Sears
Well, she had everything that a girl could want
To live happy for the rest of her years (Oh yeah)

[Verse 2]
But the thing that she wanted most of all
Was the thing that she had lost
To the arms of a downtown blackjack hustler
By the name of Candyfloss
They'd skipped town on a late night train
Heading for the west
Oh, Dolly slipped behind the wheel of her Mustang
With a piece between her breast

[Chorus]
She put a pistol in her shoulder holster
She took her car up from Santa Fe
Yesterday morning she was washing dishes
Now she's hunting down a runaway
Don't judge a man by a misdemeanor
You may be sorry when his light goes out
Don't put that pistol in your shoulder holster
Oh, you can never, never tell if the law's about (Oh)
