Heartbreak Kid

Dusty wind blew 'cross the high plains

as the stranger rode into town

with a certain reputation

for the ladies and the gun

walked to the barstool casual

just as easy as you please

he was bound to do some damage

with those valetino eyes

well, the barmaid was an angel

and she looked so out of place

and she said her name was 'Sunset'

she was different from the rest

and she couldn't help but notice

as he walked through the door

that the gunman was something special

and the bullet found it's score

and that one mistake you make is just enough

and that one mistake is, "Boy... you talk too tough"

only takes a single bullet

to bring the fastest trigger down,

only takes a pretty woman

put a gunman underground

and you may here the same old story

in ev'ry town on ev'ry street

the story of 'Sunset' and the

heartbreak kid

dirty rain soaked through a doorway

of an upper westside bar

and the TV news was talking

to the crowd of people there

'... well the kid was always reckless

he said, "I never stay to long..."

.. and when she knew that he would leave her

Sunset shot that gunman down...'

and that one mistake you make is just enough

and that one mistake is, "Boy... you talk too tough"

only takes a single bullet

to bring the fastest trigger down,

only takes a pretty woman

put a gunman underground

and you may here the same old story

in ev'ry town on ev'ry street

the story of 'Sunset' and the

heartbreak kid
