I was trying too hard   I made it too hard   To fire my rusty gun      As the smoke disappeared   The bullets came near   And missed me one by one      In the middle of a dream I had a thousand wives, a thousand hearts      I met my match at the kingdom of showdowns   Me vs. the evening's son      While my shoulder he grazed   My arm was still raised   To fire my rusted gun      Well, I'll get mine   I'll get mine   I'll get you right about now      Don't quit right now   Don't quit right now   Don't quit me right about now      In the middle of a dream I had a thousand wives, a thousand hearts
