Bridge 2: A bullet lives on. Why it is don't ask
A Three Ringer Minnie's lying in the tall tall grass
This bullet hit nothin' so I'll give it a task
I need a new stopper for my whiskey flask

5. A bullet lives on like the eyes of a snake
I'm loading the dice that blew away my leg
I carve 'em to roll like a golden egg
Come on lucky seven! I'll never have to beg

6. A bullet lives on but I only got one Smith
And I won't go back to the 65th
They shoot deserters, I know, I just want to live
I'll carve me a sinker and catch me a fish
