Lyr Req: Two Gun Daddy (Marty Robbins)

From: Gurney

I'm trying to find the words of a song, on behalf of a friend.
He's mostly blind, and music is becoming more important in his old age.

The verse he has is:

Give me water when I'm thirsty
A bottle when I'm dry
Play me sad, sad music
When I want to cry

No need to type it out, just the title or singer(s)would be fine.
Probably a Country song, as there is a little yodelling in it.

Thanks, Gurney.

TWO GUN DADDY
Written by Marty Robbins
As sung by Marty Robbins on "Two Gun Daddy" (1975)

My friends call me Two Gun; I answer when they call.
My friends call me Two Gun; I answer when they call.
I got one in my boot top, one in my overalls. [YODEL]

Well, I rode me some freight trains; I've rode some aeroplanes.
I've rode some freight trains; I've rode some aeroplanes.
I don't care how I travel; I get there just the same.

Give me water when I'm thirsty, a bottle when I'm dry.
Water when I'm thirsty, a bottle when I'm dry.
Play me some sad, sad music when I want to cry. [YODEL]

Well, I got me a good line and it works every time.
I got me a good line; it works every time.
When I start to use it, women all stand in line.

You may think I'm lyin'; what I say ain't true.
You may think I'm lyin'; what I say ain't true.
If you don't believe me, woman, let me try my line on you. [YODEL]
