Struttin' into town like you're slingin' a gun

Just a small town dude with a big city attitude

Honey are you lookin' for some trouble tonight? Well, alright

You think you're so bad, drive the women folk wild

Shoot 'em all down with the flash of your pearly smile

Honey but you met your match tonight, oh, that's right

You think you'll knock me off my feet 'till I'm flat on the floor

'Till my heart is crying indian and I'm beggin' for more

So come on, baby, come on, baby

Come on, baby, show me what that loaded gun is for

If you can give it, I can take it

'Cause if this heart is gonna break

It's gonna take a lot to break it

'Cause I know tonight

Somebody's gonna win the fight

So if you're so tough

Come on and prove it

Your heart is down for the count

And you know you're gonna lose it

Tonight you're gonna go down in flames

Just like Jesse James

You're an outlaw lover and I'm after your hide

Well, you ain't so strong

Won't be long 'till your hands are tied

Tonight I'm gonna take you in dead or alive, that's right

You break the laws of love in the name of desire

Take ten steps back, c'ause I'm ready, baby, aim and fire

Baby, there's no way you're gonna run tonight

Ooh, that's right

Well, you've had your way with love

But it's the end of the day

Now a team of wild horses couldn't break your heart away

So come on, baby, come on, baby

Come on, baby, you know there ain't nothing left to say

If you can give it, I can take it

'Cause if this heart is gonna break

It's gonna take a lot to break it

I know tonight

Somebody's gonna win the fight

So if you're so tough

Come on and prove it

Your heart is down for the count

And you know you're gonna lose it

Tonight you're gonna go down in flames

Just like Jesse James

You think you'll knock me off my feet

'Til I'm flat on the floor

'Til my heart is crying indian and I'm beggin' for more

So come on, baby, come on, baby

Come on, baby, come on

If you can give it, I can take it

'Cause if this heart is gonna break

It's gonna take a lot to break it

I know tonight

Somebody's gonna win the fight

So if you're so tough

Come on and prove it

Your heart is down for the count

And you know you're gonna lose it

Tonight you're gonna go down in flames

Just like Jesse James

Tonight you're gonna go down in flames

Just like Jesse James

Tonight you're gonna go down in flames

Just like Jesse James

I'm gonna shoot you down, Jesse James
