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 Dodge City, Kansas to wild Arizona
All outlaws alike knew their name
A shotgun, a pistol, known the world over
And the two biggest guns in the west
But the whole town of Tombstone knew the friendship was shaky
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 shootout 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 duel 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
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 Dodge City, Kansas to wild Arizona
All outlaws alike knew their name
A shotgun, a pistol, known the world over
And the two biggest guns in the west
But the whole town of Tombstone knew the friendship was shaky
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 shootout 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 duel 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
