About

“Two Gunslingers” is perhaps one of the most under-appreciated examples of Petty’s storytelling ability. The song subtly denounces a hedonistic, competition-based society through a series of revelations given from the perspectives of both the entertained and the entertainers.

Two Gunslingers Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Two gunslingers walked out in the street
And one said, "I don't want to fight no more"
And the other gunslinger thought about it
And he said, "Yeah, what are we fighting for?"

[Chorus]
I'm takin' control of my life
I'm takin' control of my life
I'm takin' control of my life now
Right now, oh yeah

[Verse 2]
Well, the crowd that assembled for the gunfight were let down
Everyone hissed and booed and a stranger told his missus
"That's the last one of these gunfights
You're ever gonna drag me to"

[Chorus]
I'm takin' control of my life
I'm takin' control of my life
I'm takin' control of my life now
Right now, oh yeah

[Verse 3]
Well, the two gunslingers went ridin' out of town
And were never heard from no more
And there ain't been a gunfight for a long time
Maybe never, but nobody knows for sure

[Chorus]
I'm takin' control of my life
I'm takin' control of my life
I'm takin' control of my life now
Right now, oh yeah
Now, right now, oh yeah
Now, right now, oh yeah
