To the town of Aqua Fria rode a stranger one fine day
Hardly spoke to folks around him didn't have too much to say
No one dared to ask his business no one dared to make a slip
For the stranger there among them had a big iron on his hip
Big iron on his hip
It was early in the morning when he rode into the town
He came riding from the southside slowly looking all around
He's an outlaw loose and running came the whisper from each
lip
And he's here to do some business with the big iron on his
hip
Big iron on his hip
In this town there lived an outlaw by the name of Texas Red
Big iron Big iron
When he tried to match the ranger with the Big iron on his
hip
Big iron on his hip
