INTRO

I'm gonna get me a brand new pistol, with a long shiny barrel
I'm gonna get me a shiny pistol, with a long shiny barrel
I'm gonna ramble this town over, until I find my girl

I'm gonna to go to the station, and try to find her there
I'm gonna to go to the station, and try to find her there
And if the Lord has not got her, she's in this world somewhere

She left me with a head full of trouble, and a head full of misery
She left me with a head full of trouble, and a head full of misery
And now she's got me crying, "Baby, please come back home to me."

My mother told me, "Don't you weep, don't you moan."
My mother told me, "Don't you weep, don't you moan.
‘Cause son, there'll be women here, when you are dead and gone."

When I get through rambling, and looking this whole world through
When I get through rambling, and looking this whole world through
I won't be dead with trouble, you know I died to lose
