Well there’s a new gunslinger in Juarez town
Fallin’ for a raven-haired girl he found
Their heat is strong but she wears a ring
That kinda love is a killin’ thing
Their eyes are shinin’ bright
Dancin’ in the moonlight
And they ain’t livin’ in the shadows
Down in old Juarez
He don’t care about danger with his kinda love
Goin’ six feet under or in heaven above
She can live but he must die
Her old time lover was livin’ a lie
Their eyes are shinin’ bright
Dancin’ in the moonlight
And they ain’t livin’ in the shadows
Down in old Juarez
Back in the bar you don’t see a tear in her eye
She stands there thinkin’, drinkin’ to her last goodbye
Tell me baby
In the nighttime the heat is risin’
Out in the street her eyes burnin’ bright
Down in old Juarez
