Gunslingers
Well, they say that there ain't no gunslingers left in town
But he's rollin' them one hand ciggies
And knocking them coke cans down
Now two times a week
One all covers them for a dozen
He straps that Gretsch on to his neck
And gets those silvers tuggin'
Now go
Well I've learned from the best
Not to trample where others nest
And my style belies
All the tales and the miles
But each weekend I own
Each square metre I'm allowed
I'm your pistol for hire, yeah
The last gunslinger in town
Well, old band hit the top 50 Yeah, 'til it all went pear-shaped
When some dick had revelation
Yeah, to record in L.A.
Now he just can't wait
For that sun to hide away
Til that day glow
It's a pain you know
And that buggery sure don't pay
Now go
Well I've learned from the best
Not to trample where others nest
And my style belies
All the tales and the miles
But each weekend I own
Each square metre I'm allowed
I'm your pistol for hire, yeah
The last gunslinger in town
We're all going to La La land
We're all going to La La land
To lights
Thick smoke and loud, loud music
It's the only kinda life
You'll ever understand
Well I've learned from the best
Not to trample where others nest
And my style belies
All the tales and the miles
But each weekend I own
Each square metre I'm allowed
I'm your pistol for hire, yeah
The last gunslinger in town
And I'm always there
But he's rollin' them one hand ciggies
And knocking them coke cans down
Now two times a week
One all covers them for a dozen
He straps that Gretsch on to his neck
And gets those silvers tuggin'
Now go
Well I've learned from the best
Not to trample where others nest
And my style belies
All the tales and the miles
But each weekend I own
Each square metre I'm allowed
I'm your pistol for hire, yeah
The last gunslinger in town
Well, old band hit the top 50 Yeah, 'til it all went pear-shaped
When some dick had revelation
Yeah, to record in L.A.

Til that day glow

And that buggery sure don't pay
Now go

Not to trample where others nest
And my style belies
All the tales and the miles

Each square metre I'm allowed
I'm your pistol for hire, yeah
The last gunslinger in town
We're all going to La La land
We're all going to La La land

It's the only kinda life
You'll ever understand
Well I've learned from the best

Each square metre I'm allowed
I'm your pistol for hire, yeah
The last gunslinger in town
And I'm always there
