(With David Ball)
You put leaving on my mind, love
Gonna fly like the lonesome dove
Until my troubles with you
Fade to a blue mirage
You say there's gonna be a showdown
But I won't be here at sundown
One thing I do well
Get the hell out of dodge
Your words ricochet around my head
You might as well be slinging lead
But I'm a son of a gun
If I can stand more than one barrage
Already two of my amigos died
My dignity and my manly pride
Let them lay where they fell
Get thе hell out of dodge
I won't hang around
This old cowtown
If you don't need me
Anymorе
I don't need nothing
I can't find
Behind some swinging doors
I see the writing on the fence rail
I hear the call down the lonesome trail
Just as clear as the bell
Get the hell out of dodge
I won't hang around
This old cowtown
If you don't need me
Anymorе
I don't need nothing
I can't find
Behind some swinging doors
Ain't gonna wait until the law gets here
Taking dames and kicking you know where
With a trumped up charge
And a hanging judge
Already two of my amigos died
My dignity and my manly pride
Let them lay where they fell
Get thе hell out of dodge
Let them lay where they fell
Get thе hell out of dodge
