The boys were marching out to war
The women cried and that's for sure
The brave man fight, the coward run
That's how the west was won…
…That's how the west was won

For on the trail I am the king
On doors I knock and on bells I ring…

When I just c*ck, c*ck my gun
'Cause I shoot for fun, that's how the west was won
I sell…

…for fun
That's how the west was won
I sell an ounce and then I sell two more
Then I come to collect with the pistol 44
There's some…

I'm convinced that's how the west was won
Were you there at the Trippin' Springs reunion
For me, that's how it all began…

Your heart just stops, stops
When I just c*ck, c*ck my gun
'Cause I shoot for fun, that's how the west was won
