I Can't Do Without Your Kiss
Tonight when I ride outta here
They will curse this shotgun town
Where the whisky flows like water
And the law means nothing to anyone
I am headin' for a showdown
And when the church-bell chimes nine times
There's a crazy gamblers' final bet
It makes the local undertaker smile
You wanted me to settle down, maybe raise a family
I remember that I said:"matrimony ain't for me"
The only thing that you said was:
"lay down your star with your gun belt
And let me be your sweetheart
I don't want you to get killed"
I can't do without your kiss,
I can't do without your kiss
There's no doin' without your kiss
A fearless outlaw always lies
Sweatin' in his bed
While the guns are always loaded
Under a pillow, under his head
And when the rooster calls one moment
At the final crack of dawn
Like the whistle from a long gone train
While the folks are gatherin' around
I can't do without your kiss,
I can't do without your kiss
There's no doin' without your kiss
And in the cathouse when we made it
You said: "I'm always yours for free"
After a day and night together
How in hell could I have disagreed
I can't do without your kiss, I can't do...
They will curse this shotgun town
Where the whisky flows like water
And the law means nothing to anyone
I am headin' for a showdown
And when the church-bell chimes nine times
There's a crazy gamblers' final bet
It makes the local undertaker smile
You wanted me to settle down, maybe raise a family
I remember that I said:"matrimony ain't for me"
The only thing that you said was:
"lay down your star with your gun belt
And let me be your sweetheart
I don't want you to get killed"
I can't do without your kiss,
I can't do without your kiss
There's no doin' without your kiss
A fearless outlaw always lies
Sweatin' in his bed
While the guns are always loaded
Under a pillow, under his head
And when the rooster calls one moment
At the final crack of dawn
Like the whistle from a long gone train
While the folks are gatherin' around
I can't do without your kiss,
I can't do without your kiss
There's no doin' without your kiss
And in the cathouse when we made it
You said: "I'm always yours for free"
After a day and night together
How in hell could I have disagreed
I can't do without your kiss, I can't do...
