(A. Young M. Young B. Johnson)

The word is out that I'm about

And I've come gunnin' for you

I'm a real entertainer a mischief maker

A lover of no fixed abode

Ooh quick draw on the floor

No law give you more

Sweet talkin' lover of sin

You want what you get

You get what you want

Look out woman

I got gun's for hire

Shoot you with desire

The gun's for hire

Shoot you with desire

I'm a wanted poster a needed man

Wanted right across the land

I'm a smooth operator a big dictator

Gonna mark you with my brand

My gun's for hire

Shoot you with desire

Got gun's for hire

Shoot you with desire

Quick draw

On the floor

Big shot



Stick em' up



Hot to trot big shot take the lot

Never get the drop on me

I'm a real entertainer mischief maker

Love in seven languages

My gun's for hire

Shoot you with desire

This gun's for hire

I shoot you with desire

My gun's for hire

Shoot you with desire

Got gun's for hire

Shoot you with desire



What you got

Big shot

You can't get

You can't get the drop

On me
