That's One You Owe Me Lyrics - Boom Chicka Boom - Johnny Cash

There was a showdown at high noon reputations 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 in Dodge that day 

And from somewhere behind me I heard him say 

"That's one you owe me I let you slide 

I can't back shoot a buddy it goes against my pride 

So like two desperados we'll ride off in the sun 

But just remember you owe me one"

And when I finally crossed the goal line ahead of him that day 

As the crowd was goin' wild I heard him say

"That's one you owe me I let you slide 

I can't back shoot a 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 lovin' on her mind 

Well I was almost tempted by her soft touch and her sigh 

But the next time I saw him I could look him in the eye 

That's one you owe me I let you slide 

I can't back shoot a buddy it goes against my pride 

So like two desperados we'll ride off in the sun 

But just remember you owe me one
