Better Than Annie

[Verse 1]
They called her a sharpshooter, her name up in lights
She won old Butler's heart in the crowds each night
But Oakley, she's got nothing on me
Throw her in a snake pit and you'll see what I mean

[Chorus 1]
'Cause I'm better, better, better than that showbiz queen
I'm better, better, better than that showbiz queen
No Annie Oakley's got nothing on me

[Verse 2]
Buffalo Bill, he saw something in her
Was it a pretty face, or girlish charm, or a certain swagger
If it really was shooting, put your money on Kate
'Cause just in two little hours, I murdered a hundred and forty snakes

[Chorus 1]
'Cause I'm better, better, better than that showbiz queen
I'm better, better, better than that showbiz queen
No Annie Oakley's got nothing on me

[Bridge]
Don't tell me she's the queen of the West
When she's spittin' and cussin' and drinkin' and hustlin' and causing a mess
Little sureshot, I've got news for you
I built my own house with my own two hands and lived in a chicken coop

[Verse 3]
She traveled the world, shot for the queen
Fought for her sisters, saw what true love could mean
So do I give up, shine the light off of me
'Cause if I turn them on her, they'll no longer see

[Chorus 2]
I'm no better, better, better than that showbiz queen
Better, better, better than that showbiz queen
No Annie Oakley's got nothing on me

[Outro]
I'm no better, better than that showbiz queen
Better, better than that showbiz queen
No Annie Oakley's got nothing on me
