Bat Masterson Songtext / Lyric

Back when the west was very young,
There lived a man named Masterson.
He wore a cane and derby hat,
They called him Bat, Bat Masterson.

The trail that he blazed is still there.
No one has come since, to replace his name.
And those with too ready a trigger,
Forgot to figure on his marching home.

Now in the legend of the West,
One name stands out of all the rest.
The man who had the fastest gun,
His name was Bat, Bat Masterson.
