To the Ctown of Agua Fria rode a stranger one fine Amday
Hardly Cspoke to folks around him didn't have too much to Amsay
No one Fdared to ask his business no one Cdared to make a slip
for the stranger there amongst them had a Ambig iron on his hip
FBig iron on his Chip
(stejné akordy)
It was early in the morning when he rode into the town
He came riding from the south side slowly lookin' all around
He's an outlaw loose and running came the whisper from each lip
And he's here to do some business with the big iron on his hip
big iron on his hip
In this town there lived an outlaw by the name of Texas Red
Many men had tried to take him and that many men were dead
He was vicious and a killer though a youth of twenty four
And the notches on his pistol numbered one an nineteen more
One and nineteen more
Now the stranger started talking made it plain to folks around
Was an Arizona ranger wouldn't be too long in town
He came here to take an outlaw back alive or maybe dead
And he said it didn't matter he was after Texas Red
After Texas Red
Wasn't long before the story was relayed to Texas Red
But the outlaw didn't worry men that tried before were dead
Twenty men had tried to take twenty men had made a slip
Twenty one would be the ranger with the big iron on his hip
Big iron on his hip
The morning passed so quickly it was time for them to meet
It was twenty past eleven when they walked out in the street
Folks were watching from their windows everybody held their breath
They knew this handsome ranger was about to meet his death
About to meet his death
There was Cforty feet between them when they stopped to make their
Amplay
And the Cswiftness of the ranger is still talked about toAmday
Texas FRed had not cleared leather when a Cbullet fairly ripped
And the rangers aim was deadly with the Ambig iron on his hip
FBig iron on his Chip
It was Cover in a moment and the folks had gathered Amround
There Cbefore them lay the body of the outlaw on the Amground
Oh he Fmight have gone on living but he Cmade one fatal slip
When he tried to match the ranger with the Ambig iron on his hip
FBig iron on his Chip
Big iron Big iron
When he Ctried to match the ranger with the Ambig iron on his hip
