Theme Song Lyrics

Title: "Colt .45"

By: "Harold S. Hopper & Douglas Heyes"

There was a gun that won the west.
There was a man among the best.
The fastest gun or man alive.
A lightning bolt when he drew that Colt... .45.

He carried the message of law and of order,
Into a wicked land.
With a bolt single action on his revolver
Blazing from either hand.

There was the right, there was the wrong.
The gun was quick, the man was strong.
And each was made when they arrive,
A lightning bolt when the drew that Colt... .45.

Colt .45.
Colt .45.
Colt .45.
Colt .45.
