Tonight when I ride outta here

They will curse this shotgun town

Where the whisky flows like water

And the law means nothing to anyone



I am headin' for a showdown

And when the church-bell chimes nine times

There's a crazy gamblers' final bet

It makes the local undertaker smile

You wanted me to settle down, maybe raise a family

I remember that I said:"matrimony ain't for me"



The only thing that you said was:

"lay down your star with your gun belt

And let me be your sweetheart

I don't want you to get killed"



I can't do without your kiss,

I can't do without your kiss

There's no doin' without your kiss



A fearless outlaw always lies

Sweatin' in his bed

While the guns are always loaded

Under a pillow, under his head

And when the rooster calls one moment

At the final crack of dawn

Like the whistle from a long gone train

While the folks are gatherin' around



I can't do without your kiss,

I can't do without your kiss

There's no doin' without your kiss



And in the cathouse when we made it

You said: "I'm always yours for free"

After a day and night together

How in hell could I have disagreed



I can't do without your kiss, I can't do....
