What's it take to make the dime drop
All these kids they think they're quick on the draw
Always shootin' at outlaws
I'm busy keeping my Colt cocked
I'm gonna know you when you finally come, 'cause I got you in my mind's eye
I got you in my mind's eye

I'm gonna take up the Steinway
Waitin' for the bullet that I'll never see come
I'm gonna start me a new way
I'm puttin' up with you, lie awake
Calling me out to the middle of the street
Oh, I've got you in my mind's eye
I got you in my mind's eye

Oh, I got you in my mind's eye
My day might be coming, but your's is coming first
I'll knock you out of your day lights
And when you come for me some night
You better bring a shovel, be expecting the worst
'cause I got you in my mind's eye
I got you in my mind's eye
Oh, I've got you in my mind's eye
I got you in my mind's eye
