Verse 1
Way Out In Reno, Nevada,
Where Romance Blooms And Fades,
A Great Philadelphia Lawyer
Was In Love With A Hollywood Maid.

Come Love, And We Will Wander
Down Where The Lights Are Bright;
I'll Win You A Divorce From Your Husband
And We Can Get Married Tonight.

Wild Bill Was A Gun-Totin' Cowboy,
Ten Notches Were Carved In His Gun;
All The Boys Around Reno
Left Wild Bill's Maiden Alone.

Verse 4
One Night When He Was Returning
From Ridin' The Range In The Cold,
He Dreamed Of His Hollywood Sweetheart
Her Love Was As Lasting As Gold.
Verse 5
As He Drew Near Her Window
A Shadow He Saw On The Shade;
Was The Great Philadelphia Lawyer
Making Love To Bill's Hollywood Maid?
Verse 6
The Night Was As Still As The Desert
The Moon Hangin' High Overhead
Bill Listened A While To The Lawyer
He Could Hear Every Word That He Said
Verse 7
Your Hands Are So Pretty And Lovely,
Your Form So Rare And Divine;
Come Go With Me To The City
And Leave This Wild Cowboy Behind.
Verse 8
Tonight Back In Old Pennsylvania,
Among The Beautiful Pines
There's One Less Philadelphia Lawyer
In Old Philadelphia Tonight
