Two gunslingers, walked out in the street 
and one said "i don't wanna fight no more" 
and the other gunslinger thought about it 
and he said, "yeah what are we fighting for?" 
I'm t akin' control of my life, 
i'm takin' control of my life 
i'm takin' control of my life now, 
right now, oh yeah 
Well the crowd that assembled 
for the gun fight were let down 
everyone hissed and booed 
and a stranger told h is mrs. 
that's the last one of these gunfights 
you're ever gonna drag me to 
I'm takin' control of my life, 
i'm takin' control of my life 
i'm takin' control of my life now, 
right now, oh yeah 
Well the two gunslinge rs 
went ridin' out of town and 
were never heard from no more 
and there ain't been a gun fight 
for a long time, maybe never 
but nobody knows for sure 
I'm takin' control of my life, 
i'm takin' control of my life 
i'm t akin' control of my life now, 
right now, oh yeah
