Conversation With a Gun (Re-Recorded Version) - Tex Ritter
Speak up you rusty forty-five

How many can you name
That you faced and left alive

How many hit the dust

Left there lying in the street

Did you get them in the back

Or did you face them on their feet

Oh yes You had your day
You were known for slinging lead

Those behind you laughed and shouted

Those in front of you fell dead

There was Utah Pete and One Eyed Jack

Just to mention just a few

So won't you tell me how you feel
Now that your battles have been won

Speak up we've no secrets

For I'm the Man and you're the Gun

Yes you're the gun that tamed the West

And I'm the last one that you faced

The one who owned you then

He was beaten and disgraced

They cheered me
And they wined me the day I shot him down
I was their hero

Heard my praises echo through that Western town

But then although I beat you

You became my own downfall

For I placed you in my holster

The very next fight he got me

Left me wounded and no longer young

But it wasn't him that beat me oh
It was you yes you

The gun

So go on

Hang there on the wall
Ignore me
See if I care

I'll just wheel myself over to the window here

Get me a breath of fresh air

So when some friends comes calling

Was it me or was it you

The Gun
