Whenever I walk into the street
And I see you standing there
With your back to the wall
And your eyes on me
I just stare and stare
And I feel like I'm living in a western movie
That's only just begun
And I got seven shells in my six gun

I'm wilder and bluer and yonderer
Now that you're with me
And there's a tin star on my chest
Where my heart used to be
And even when it's high noon baby
My back's to the sun
And I got seven shells in my six gun
And I got seven shells in my six gun

You're trouble baby
And there ain't no doubt
The kind of trouble
I can live without
But I want to stay
By your side
As long as I'm alive

The daylight's stronger
And the shadows are longer
Ever since I've found you
And I feel like I'm ten feet tall
And there's nothing I can't do
And don't worry baby when things get crazy
'Cause I won't turn and run
I got seven shells in my six gun
And I got seven shells in my six gun
