There was a fight over a girl
Out of all the people in this world
I never thought he’d have a gun
But now it seems more than likely that he certainly had one

He was kind of upset
I think that he was playing Russian roulette
He was alone in the room
We were watching Dallas when we heard the big boom

I’ve never seen this man before
He must have jimmied the lock on the back door
Maybe a vagrant from the park
