CHRISTOPHER CROSS
"Wild Wild West"
(Christopher Cross / Rob Meurer)

Out here on the plains tonight
The white man rules the game
Searching through the flames tonight
There's no one left to blame

This town just don't seem big enough
For the likes of the two of us

Here in the wild wild west
In the wild wild west, my friend
Living in the wild wild west
In the wild wild west again

We left our bootprint on the shore
And rode off on toward sunset
We left the natives on the cutting room floor
And the shootings still not done yet

This town just don't seem big enough
For the likes of the two of us

Here in the wild wild west
In the wild wild west, my friend
Living in the wild wild west
In the wild wild west again

Lazy boy and channel three
Bourbon and contrition
Say a prayer for the NRA
And pass the ammunition

This town just don't seem big enough
For the likes of the two of us

Here in the wild wild west
In the wild wild west, my friend

Mercy, folly and frustration
Mercy, too much information
Oh, mercy, desperate situation
Here in the wild wild west
In the wild wild west again

This town just don't seem big enough
For the likes of the two of us

Here in the wild wild west
In the wild wild west, my friend

Oh this world just don't seem big enough
For really two of us

Here in the wild wild west
In the wild wild west, my friend
Here in the wild wild west
In the wild wild west, my friend
Living in the wild wild west
In the wild wild west again
