You walked into the bar real slow
Told all the others to go
Jack Adam Caine
Came in from the rain
With a friend from a travellin' show
And you smiled real mean
And they said they'd been
Wonderin' more times than you could name
And they winked at the man behind the bar
And he said "set em up Max, you know my game"
He was the Kingston River Travellin' Man
A pistol shootin' angel named Dave
You never grow old
If you haven't been told
Instead of half-crossing
The daredevil hell of a man
He saw her standin' by the door
He'd never seen so sweetness before
He felt his heart race
She showed fear on her face
And he knew that he'd want what he saw
So he moved her aside
And her heart cried
And she knew that she'd found her man
And he smiled as he said
Lady, my love
You'll never be lonesome again
Cause you found a Kingston River Travellin' Man
A pistol shootin' angel named Dave
You never grow old
If you haven't been told
And you're scared of half-crossing
The daredevil hell of a man
So he took her away
On that fateful day
And they the vowed to eachother
Their love
In a tender state
She thought it would be great
To be blessed from the Lord up above
Ohh, she was in love
With that Kingston River Travellin' Man
A pistol shootin' angel named Dave
You never grow old
If you haven't been told
And you're scared of half-crossing
The daredevil hell of a man
