Gather around me my good friends, cause I got a tale to tell.
About a man who shot me once, and this wound still feels like hell.
I was riding high after a wild night, and I saw a man in red.
And I told him, hey, you're in my way.
He said, you're as good as dead.
He was mean, part machine, his shotguns threw dirt bursts.
His lead hit home, I hit the dirt, even though I drew first. _

And I was bleeding out, but the man in red, he said, boy you listen close.
And I'll explain the genesis of the color of my choice.
He said, when I was young, my daddy took me to a bull ring far from town.
It worn around and made me tough, so I'd never bend down.
I felt the rise of the bull's eyes when it saw the cave blood red.
I knew right then, the hue for which I'd been born and bred. _
