Your Time Has Come

I know all there is 'bout lizards and frogs
I've studied the good points of cats and dogs

My friends and I have built great snowball forts
I've read all the books on far away ports

I learned to quick draw and wear a white hat
And my hoss knows where the bad guys is at

We've cleaned up towns and drunk in the saloon
And answered the call to draw at high noon

Just had a party, I turned thirteen
Met a girl there - beat all I ever seen

She wore short shorts that bothered me some
Wake up, my heart,seems like your time has come
