Wild Bill was a gun-totin' cowboy
Ten notches were carved in his gun
And all the boys around Reno
Left Wild Bill's maiden…

One night when Bill was returning
From ridin' the range in the cold
He dreamed of his Hollywood sweetheart
Her love…

The night was as still as the desert
The moon hangin' high overhead
Bill listened awhile through the window

…is free.
By the Devil's wash and coyote hole in the wild Owyhee Range
Somewhere in the sage tonight the wind calls out his name.
Aye,aye,aye.
Come…
…a trapper,and he dreamed of the bygone days,
And he studied bobcat logic and their wild and silent ways
In the bloody runs near Paradise…
…the Northern Mystery,
Where rivers run and disappear the mustang still is free.
By the Devil's wash and the coyote hole in the wild Owyhee Range
Somewhere in the sage tonight the wind calls out his name.
Aye,aye,aye…
…and we will wander down where the lights are bright
I'll win you a divorce from your husband and we can get married tonight
Wild Bill…
…was a gun tottin' cowboy ten notches were carved in his gun

One…
The night was as still as the desert the moon hanging high overhead
Bill listened awhile to the lawyer he could hear every word…

By the Devil's wash and the coyote hole
In the wild Owyhee Range
Somewhere in the sage tonight
The wind calls out his name
Aye Aye Aye…
…of the bygone days
And he studied bobcat logic
And the wild and silent ways
In the bloody runs near paradise
And the monitors down south…
…and disappear
And the Mustang still lives free
By the Devil's wash and the coyote hole
In the wild Owyhee Range
Somewhere in the sage tonight
The wind calls out his name
Aye Aye Aye…

…and we will wander down where the lights are bright
I'll win you a divorce from your husband and we can get married tonight
Wild Bill…
…was a gun tottin' cowboy ten notches were carved in his gun
All the boys around Reno left Wild Bill's maiden alone
One night…
The night was as still as the desert the moon hanging high overhead
Bill listened awhile to the lawyer he could hear every word that he said…

…married tonight.
Wild Bill was a gun totin' cowboy
Ten notches were carved in his gun
All the boys around Reno
Left Wild Bill's maiden…
Making love to Bill's Hollywood maid.
The night was as still as the desert
The moon hanging high overhead
Bill listened awhile…
…to the lawyer
He could hear every word that he said.
Your hands are so pretty and lovely
Your form so rare and divine
Come go with me to the city
And leave this wild…

…and we will wander
Down where the lights are bright
I'll win you a divorce from your husband
And we can get married tonight…

Now, Bill was a gun-totin' cowboy
Ten notches were carved in his gun
And all the boys around Reno
Left Wild Bill's maiden alone
One…
…night, when Bill was returning
From ridin' the range in the cold
He dreamed of his Hollywood maiden
Her love…

…of the show, Fire in the Booth
And tonight makin' their debut
Someone who's a real problem with it man
Ferocious with the pen
I ain't wanna…
…no resort for me, no loss for me, no thought for me
No boss for me, water clean, no Voss for me
I paid the price, AmEx bill, no cost for me
I fuck her off, there's…
You tryna see who I am tonight, but I vary
Shit that I learned, you can't find in no library, time scary
You can…

…and we will wander
Down where the lights are bright
I'll win you a divorce from your husband
And we can get married tonight"
Wild…
…Bill was a gun-totin' cowboy
Ten notches were carved in his gun
And all the boys around Reno
Left Wild Bill's maiden alone
One…
…maid
And the night was as still as the desert
And the moon hangin' high overhead
Bill listened a while to the lawyer
He could hear…
