There was a showdown at high noon
Reputation's on the line
It was the good guys and the bad guys
I was eight, and he was nine
And I forgot to keep my back to the wall and dodge that day
And from somewhere behind me, I heard him say
That's one you owe me
Ooh, ooh
I let you slide
Ooh, ooh
I can't back-shooter, buddy
It goes against my pride
So like two desperados, we'll ride off in the sun
But just remember, you owe me one
It was high school and football on two different teams
I was good, but he was better than I would ever be
And when I finally reached the end zone ahead of him
That day, as the crowd was going wild, I heard him say
That's one you owe me
Ooh, ooh
I let you slide
Ooh, ooh
I can't back-shooter, buddy
It goes against my pride
So like two desperados, we'll ride off in the sun
But just remember, you owe me one
She was long and lean and pretty, and soon to be his bride
When she strayed into my arms one day with loving on her mind
And I was almost tempted by her soft touch and her sigh
But the next time I saw him, I just looked him in the eye
That's one you owe me
Ooh, ooh
I let you slide
Ooh, ooh
I can't back-shooter, buddy
It goes against my pride
So like two desperados, we'll ride off in the sun
But just remember, you owe me one
That's one you owe me
Ooh, ooh
I let you slide
Ooh, ooh
I can't back-shooter, buddy
It goes against my pride
So like two desperados, we'll ride off in the sun
But just remember, you owe me one
