Round these parts you better use your smarts
We gonna wind up in a gutter all dead
Forget rest or you sunday best
They ain't no use where we're heading
She said she wanted to write a western
I know a place where the sun won't set
Said she's looking for inspiration
Well baby how bout a spin of two-timer's roulette
There's outlaws in-laws, no laws at all
Cept for the laws of lead and steel
The band plays The Band but I'm a silly little man
Cause I'm just trying to Ophelia (oh feel ya)
She said she wanted to write a western
I know a place where the sun won't set
Said she's looking for inspiration
Well baby how bout a spin of two-timer's roulette
Now she howls for the barkeep don't gimme nothing sweet
I like to drink me some bourbon
Takes a moment to register, she's really just robbing the register
Giving the keep a .45 caliber sermon
She said she wanted to write a western
I know a place where the sun won't set
Said she's looking for inspiration
But really she was taking me for a spin of two-timer's roulette
