Ringo Songtext

Ringo Songtext

He laid face-down on the desert sand
Clutchin′ a six-gun in his hand
Shot from behind, I thought he was dead
For under his heart was an ounce of lead
But a spark still burned so I used my knife
And late that night I saved the life of Ringo
Ringo (Ringo, Ringo)
I nursed him 'til the danger passed
The days went by, he mended fast
Then from dawn ′til setting sun
He practiced with that deadly gun
And hour on hour I watched in awe
No human being could match the draw of Ringo
Ringo (Ringo, Ringo, Ringo)
One day we rode the mountain crest
I went East, and he went West
I took to law and wore a star
While he spread terror near and far
With lead and blood he gained such fame
All through the West they feared the name of Ringo


Ringo (Ringo, Ringo)
I knew someday I'd face the test
Which one of us would be the best
And sure enough, the word came down
That he was holed up in the town
I left the posse in the street
And I went in alone to meet Ringo
Ringo (Ringo, Ringo, Ringo)
They said my speed was next to none
But my lightnin' draw had just begun
When I heard a blast that stung my wrist
The gun went flyin′ from my fist
And I was lookin′ down the bore
Of the deadly 44 of Ringo
Ringo (Ringo, Ringo)
They said that was the only time
That anyone had seen him smile
He slowly lowered his gun and then
Said to me, "We're even, friend"
So at last I understood
That there was still a spark of good in Ringo
Ringo (Ringo, Ringo, Ringo)
I blocked the path of his retreat
He turned and stepped into the street
A dozen guns spit fire and lead
A moment later, he lay dead
The town began to shout and cheer
And nowhere was there shed a tear for Ringo
Ringo (Ringo, Ringo)
The story spread throughout the land
That I had beaten Ringo′s hand
And it was just the years, they say
That made me put my guns away
But on his grave, they can't explain
The tarnished star above the name of Ringo
Ringo (Ringo, Ringo)
Ringo (Ringo, Ringo)
Ringo (Ringo, Ringo)
Ringo (Ringo, Ringo)
