Wells Fargo (1994 Digital Remaster) - Babe Ruth
Jake riding shotgun the whole of his days
Heading for the Mexican border
Shotgun moving to the rhythm of his range
Just to help him keep law and order
Sits right back just a-taking it easy
Drinks a shot a whisky and it makes him mighty wheezy
He coughed hard once
He coughed hard twice
Neglecting keeping watch
Don't mind the sheriff's advice
Riding
Shotgun
Running over land
To the Rio Grande
Now
Shots rang down from the rocks up above
And bore Jake to his feet
His pants fell down and acting like a clown
The bullets had him dancing to a rock and roll beat
Big Jake did the boogaloo too
Got lucky he cried like a drunk
His operations aren't no for you
And that's the way it is
Riding
Shotgun
Running over land
To the Rio Grande
Now
Stage gotten in to the centre of town
And Jake gotta have himself a drink
He got to the bar and what he saw
Simple station folk would hate to think
Ella-May was dancing to the sound of the blues
Her belly must be wobbling right down to her shoes
It's a-grooving on the sidewalk just don't get too near
Cause you're gonna get knocked over by a belly full oh beer
Riding
Shotgun
Running over land
To the Rio Grande
Take the law in hand
To the Rio Grande
Now
