I’ve been the mayor in this old town
(lum-de lum-de-loo)
I am a woman’s man, females all around
(lum-de lum-de-loo)
I’m respected, I am detested,
what they really don’t know is
I shot a man in Ellenburg, long, long time ago
(lum-de lum-de-loo).
Well, I’ll be a lawman’s piece of cake
(lum-de lum-de-loo)
but before they get me, my life I’ll take.
(lum-de lum-de-loo)
I’ll be the biggest thing that’s happened here
and that’s the way it’s gonna stay
‘cause I love a woman in this town,
I’m marrying her today.
I’ll be the biggest thing that’s happened here
and that’s the way it’s gonna stay
‘cause I love a woman in this town,
I’m marrying her today…
