Lookin' out across this town
Kinda makes me wonder how
All the things that made us great
Got left so far behind

This used to be a peaceful palce
Decent folks hardworkin' ways
Now they hide behind locked doors
Afraid to speak their mind

I think we need a Gunslinger
Somebody tough to tame this town
I think we need a Gunslinger
There'll be justice all around

Someone let the fences go
Wild eyed bunch moved in you know
Shootin' up the street
Shoutin' everybody down
The dogs all runnin' loose

Wrecked the paper
Closed the school
Tired old judge got roughed up too
No one left to make a stand
They whisper what's the use

I think we need a Gunslinger
Somebody tough to tame this town
I think we need a Gunslinger
There'll be justice all around
