On his way to dinner when
It took him by surprise
And with one pull of the trigger
He would vanish overnight

Dancing by the roadside
Holding on for dear life
Then a gun from out of nowhere
Made a widow of his wife

I don't mind single file down
The runway
Feelin' fine and I'll see you
My friend
Over and Over again

Who can we get on the case?
We need Perry Mason
Someone to put you in place
Calling Perry Mason again

Riding painted horses, oh the
Kids they love it so
You can see it on their faces
How they love the wind to blow

Minding my own business
Like my mama always said
But if I don't try to help'um
They could wind up on the front page

Wake me when it's over tell me
It's all right
Just keep on talking baby, I've
Been doing this all night
How much did you give me, tell
Me it'll be all right
