Faron Young – Letras de The Guns Of Johnny Rondo

Composer(s) – Joe Lubin, Gerald Day, Harry Surman

Sixteen tried sixteen died at the hands of Johnny Rondo
Sixteen holes in sixteen souls from the guns of Johnny Rondo

It started when McGrawley came and put young Johnny's ma to shame
Revenge was sweet that night in town
Hey whatcha gonna do when they challenge you
That night he shot McGrawley down

Sixteen tried sixteen died at the hands of Johnny Rondo
When you fool with lust you bite the dust
From the guns of Johnny Rondo
Johnny Rondo

He wed a girl named Mary Ann
A child was born they called him Dan
But when you live a gunman's life
Hey whatcha gonna do when they challenge you
And by mistake kill your wife

Sixteen tried sixteen died at the hands of Johnny Rondo
Sweet Mary Ann they shot her down
And broke the heart of Johnny Rondo
Johnny Rondo

Now Johnny Rondo and his son
Both headin' west without a gun
For Johnny vowed he'd kill no more
Hey whatcha gonna do when they challenge you
Without your guns Johnny Rondo
Sixteen tried sixteen died at the hands of Johnny Rondo
Now it's over and done you're through with your guns
Keep headin' west with your son
Johnny Rondo
Johnny Rondo
Johnny Rondo
