In the dDays of William BAmonney
Better knDown as Bill the KAmid
A yDoung cowboy named JAmoey Steele
Was 'bDout to make his bid
Well, they hDeard one day
That BAmill the Kid had jDust rode into tAmown
And if Dhe could take him
AmHe would be fDastest gun around
He was jDust a kid of seAmventeen
But he hDad a lightin' hAmand
And he sDaid it's time I shAmowed the world
That ID've become a man
EDveryone thinks BAmilly is
The fDastest gun aAmround
But tDhey will know I'm fAmaster
When they sDee me shoot him down
They fiGnally came togFether
Down on MGain Street just at fFive
The pGeople were all gaFthered
Wonderin' wGho'd be left alive
BGilly knew that JFoey wanted
NGotches on his Fgun
And he wGished that he could gFive him
Those he'd caGrved upon his own
JDoey's hand went Amto his side
He was sDure that he had wAmon
But beDfore he even fAmired he saw
The sDmoke of Billy's gun
And he fDelt the bullet hAmit him hard
And beDfore his eyes he Amsaw
His wDasted life pass quAmickly
Ending wDith this fatal draw
BiDlly breathed more eAmasily
And he Dput away his gAmun
And he tDried to ease his cAmonscience
For the wDrong that he had done
Then he sDaddled up his hAmorse
And headed wDestward out of tAmown
And he wDondered just how lAmong he'd be
The fDastest gun around...Am(hold oDut for a while following the chords)
