(Dickie Peterson & Dieter Saller) 
I came in bleeding, crying from the pain 
My woman said, "Oh no, not again!" 
There was a row in the town tonight 
A man went down but 
I got out alright 
I got out alright 
I got out alright 
Oh yeah. I came in bleeding, crying from the pain 
My woman said, "Oh no, not again!" 
There was a row in the town tonight 
A man went down but 
I got out alright. 
Don't patch me up, 
I got to walk 
Out on the streets they're all starting to talk 
The cops and the cons, they're all starting to say 
My love for you killed a man today. 
Gunfight in the heart of town 
I don't know his name but a man went down 
He was long and tall and oh-so-mean 
With a bleeding on his face and a bullet in his spleen! 
They got south down to 
Mexico No questions asked, ain't nobody know 
I killed a man, he desearved to die 
I love you baby, but 
I must survive. 
You can't come, 
I have to go alone 
I'll try to call you on the telephone 
Don't try to find me cause 
I won't be found 
I'm running from the man and 
I'm down on the bound. 
Gunfight in the heart of town 
I don't know his name but a man went down 
He was long and tall and oh-so-mean 
With a bullet in his face and a bullet in his spleen! 
Ooooooohhh, 
Yeh! Gunfight in the heart of town 
Don't know his name but a man went down 
He was long and tall and oh-so-mean 
With a grin on his face and a bullet in his spleen! 
I go south down to ol' 
Mexico No questions asked, ain't nobody know 
I killed a man, he desearved to die 
I love you baby, but 
I must survive.
