Bo Diddley’s a Gunslinger/Bo Diddley (Live, 1980)
[Intro]
Yeah
[Verse 1]
Well, here's a little story that I really want to tell
It's about Bo Diddley at the O.K. Corral
Now, Bo Diddley didn't start no mess
He had a gun on his hip and a rose on his vest
[Chorus]
'Cause Bo Diddley's a gunslinger
(Bo Diddley's a gunslinger)

[Verse 2]
Bo Diddley buys him a diamond ring
If that diamond ring don't shine
He better take it to a private eye
And if that private eye can't see
Well, he better bring that ring to me

Take my baby away from home
Where'd you go, oh, where'd you been?
Up your house and gone again
