Song lyrics:
TO THE TOWN OF AGUA FRIA
RODE A STRANGER ONE FINE DAY
HARDLY SPOKE TO
FOLKS AROUND HIM
DIDN’T HAVE TOO MUCH TO SAY
NO-ONE DARED
TO ASK HIS BUSINESS
NO-ONE DARED
TO MAKE A SLIP
FOR THE STRANGER
THERE AMONG THEM
HAD A BIG IRON ON HIS HIP
BIG IRON ON HIS HIP
IT WAS EARLY IN THE MORNIN’
WHEN HE RODE INTO THE TOWN
HE CAME RIDIN’ FROM
THE SOUTH SIDE
SLOWLY LOOKIN’ ALL AROUND
HE’S AN OUTLAW LOOSE
AND RUNNIN’ CAME THE
WHISPER FROM EACH LIP
AND H
...E’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 AND NINETEEN MORE
ONE AND NINETEEN MORE
NOW THE STRANGER STARTED
TALKIN’ 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 HIM 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 WATCHIN’
FROM THE WINDOWS
EVERYBODY HELD
THEIR BREATH
THEY KNEW THIS HANDSOME
RANGER WAS ABOUT
TO MEET HIS DEATH
ABOUT TO MEET HIS DEATH
THERE WAS FORTY FEET
BETWEEN ’EM
WHEN THEY STOPPED
TO MAKE THEIR PLAY
AND THE SWIFTNESS OF
THE RANGER IS STILL
TALKED ABOUT TODAY
TEXAS RED HAD NOT
CLEARED LEATHER ’FORE
A BULLET FAIRLY RIPPED
AND THE RANGER’S AIM
WAS DEADLY WITH
THE BIG IRON ON HIS HIP
BIG IRON ON HIS HIP
IT WAS OVER IN A MOMENT
AND THE FOLKS HAD
GATHERED ’ROUND
THERE BEFORE THEM LAY
THE BODY OF THE
OUTLAW ON THE GROUND
OH, HE MIGHT HAVE
WENT ON LIVIN’
BUT HE MADE ONE FATAL SLIP
WHEN HE TRIED TO MATCH
THE RANGER WITH
THE BIG IRON ON HIS HIP
BIG IRON ON HIS HIP
BIG IRON, BIG IRON
WHEN HE TRIED TO MATCH
THE RANGER WITH
THE BIG IRON ON HIS HIP
BIG IRON ON HIS HIP...Show more
