Billy Walker - Gun The Gold And The Girl lyrics

I had to have the gun to get the gold and I had to have the gold to get the girl

She wanted things I couldn't buy I knew I'd lose her love

And she was everything in life that I've been dreaming of

And desperation one dark night began my life a crime

I knew where someone captured a gun and now the gun was mine

I had to have the gun to get the gold and I had to have the gold to get the girl

[ guitar ]

I robbed and stole I even killed to win her for my own

Then found her in an another's arms one night when I came home

I drew my gun they tried to run never made the door

And by their side I threw the gun I wouldn't need no more

No I wouldn't need the gun to get the gold

For I wouldn't need the gold to get the girl

[ guitar ]

Now very soon I'll meet my doom the rope hangs just outside

But when I found her in his arms that's when I really died

Oh I had to have the gun to get the gold and I had to have the gold to get the girl

Oh I had to have the gun to get the gold and I had to have the gold to get the girl
