5 Guns West



Ladies can be captains and ladies can be chiefs

Just like glorious Amazons, Ann Bonny, Mary Reed

A woman can be captain and a woman can be chief

This stuff I'm talking Buddy-Bob, don't give me any grief



5 Guns West



I'm a big tough man with a big tough plan

Gonna take a whirl with a big tough girl

I'm a big tough man with a big tough plan

Gonna spend my life with a big tough wife



A woman's wrath hath no man, and this all men must fear

These were ladies from Hell, carving crimson careers

A woman can be captain and a woman can be chief

This stuff I'm talking Buddy-Bob, don't give me any grief



5 Guns West



I'm a big tough man with a big tough plan

Gonna spend my day in a big tough way

I'm a big tough man with a big tough plan

Gonna take a whirl with a big tough girl



5 Guns West



I'm a big tough man with a big tough plan

Gonna spend my life with a big tough wife

I'm a big tough man with a big tough plan

Gonna take a whirl with a big tough girl



I'm a big tough man and my name is Stan

Gonna take a ride with my big tough bride

I'm a big tough man with a big tough plan

Gonna spend my day in a big tough way
