Lyrics:
Orbison/dees Roy produced and sang backing vocals bill dees sang lead vocal Blackie dalton was a gun fighter They say that he was the fastest gun alive Before you could draw your gun from the holster You would surely die Blackie dalton was a gun fighter He killed three men in abilone and four in wichita He wounded one in kansas city Let him live out of pity He was tired of killing them all Then one night in a brawl His brother john got killed in wichita Defending his brother's name The blackie dalton fame had brought his brother shame He got word in tucson about his brother john They heard him say as he left that day " I've got to hunt him down Then i'll throw my gun away" Lonely night on the trail He'd listen to the coyotes wail And sympathise with the cry For one more man must die Blackie dalton was a gun fighter The fastest gun alive is what they say He caught that man shot him down Turned and walked away Yes, he threw his gun away Blackie dalton was a gun fighter But he turned his back on the life that he had led A man remembered from kansas city Didn't have any pity He shot blackie dead Yes he shot blackie dead Lonely nights on the trail The cowboys tell a different tale Blackie didn't really die No, blackie didn't really die Blackie dalton was a gun fighter The fastest gun alive is what they said He changed his name and in his grave The kansas man instead With this marker at his head " blackie dalton was a gun fighter"
