To the town of Agua Fria rode a stranger one fine day
Hardly spoke to folks around him didn't have too much to say
No one dared to ask his business no one dared to make a slip
for the stranger there amongst them had a big iron on his hip Big iron on his hip
It was early in the morning when he rode into the town
He came riding from the south side slowly lookin' all around
He's an outlaw loose and running came the whisper from each lip
And he's here to do some business with the big iron on his hip
big iron on his hip Many men had tried to take him and that many men were dead
In this town there lived an outlaw by the name of Texas Red
And the notches on his pistol numbered one an nineteen more
He was vicious and a killer though a youth of twenty four
One and nineteen more Was an Arizona ranger wouldn't be too long in town
Now the stranger started talking made it plain to folks around
He came here to take an outlaw back alive or maybe dead
And he said it didn't matter he was after Texas Red
After Texas Red Wasn't long before the story was relayed to Texas Red
Twenty men had tried to take twenty men had made a slip
But the outlaw didn't worry men that tried before were dead
Twenty one would be the ranger with the big iron on his hip
Big iron on his hip The morning passed so quickly it was time for them to meet
It was twenty past eleven when they walked out in the street
Folks were watching from their windows everyAbout to meet his death
They knew this handsome ranger was about to meet his death There was forty feet between them when they stopped to make their play
And the swiftness of the ranger is still talked about toTexas Red had not cleared leather when a bullet fairly ripped
And the rangers aim was deadly with the big iron on his hip Big iron on his hip
There before them lay the body of the outlaw on the ground
It was over in a moment and the folks had gathered round
Oh he might have gone on living but he made one fatal slip
When he tried to match the ranger with the big iron on his hip
Big iron on his hip Big iron Big iron When he tried to match the ranger with the big iron on his hip.
