Bowie Knife - Frankie laine[00:00:00]

Written by：Edward Truman/Mike Oatman[00:00:00]

I got off the riverboat in New Orleans[00:00:00]

In the spring of 82[00:00:04]

I walked into a gambling house[00:00:08]

As gamblers often do[00:00:11]

I had myself a drink[00:00:16]

And I joined in a poker game[00:00:18]

The dealer was a woman[00:00:20]

So I asked her for her name[00:00:22]

She smiled at me so pretty[00:00:26]

But a hush fell over the place[00:00:28]

As a big man crossed the table[00:00:29]

Stood up and slapped my face[00:00:32]

Bowie knife Bowie knife[00:00:37]

Long glitterin' steel[00:00:41]

If my gun don't take your evil life[00:00:43]

You can bet my Bowie knife will[00:00:47]

I had my choice of weapons on[00:00:53]

Which would depend my life[00:00:55]

I chose a set of pistols[00:00:56]

And a long old Bowie knife[00:00:58]

I met him by the river by[00:01:03]

The light of the rising sun[00:01:05]

Was I prepared to fight him[00:01:06]

I feared my time had come[00:01:09]

Bowie knife Bowie knife[00:01:14]

Long glitterin' steel[00:01:17]

If my gun don't take your evil life[00:01:20]

You can bet my Bowie knife will[00:01:23]

As we stood back to[00:01:29]

Back there on the doolin' green[00:01:30]

I cursed the fate that had brought me[00:01:32]

To the town of New Orleans[00:01:35]

The referee started counting[00:01:39]

The paces one by one[00:01:41]

When I heard him say twenty[00:01:43]

I turned and fired my gun[00:01:45]

I kNew at once I'd missed[00:01:50]

And I waited there in fear as[00:01:51]

The stranger aimed and fired[00:01:53]

But the bullet went by my ear[00:01:56]

He threw away his pistol and drew his Bowie knife[00:02:00]

I kNew that razor edge would soon snap off my life[00:02:04]

But somehow luck was with me[00:02:11]

And my weapon found his side[00:02:12]

He lay there on the doolin' ground[00:02:14]

Then he cursed me as he died[00:02:17]

Bowie knife Bowie knife[00:02:22]

Long glitterin' steel[00:02:25]

If my gun don't take your evil life[00:02:28]

You can bet my Bowie knife will[00:02:32]

You can bet my Bowie knife will[00:02:35]

You can bet my Bowie knife will[00:02:38]
