"I Feel Like a Bullet (In the Gun of Robert Ford)" is a song on British pop singer Elton John's 1975 album Rock of the Westies.
The song's lyrics compare the shooting of Jesse James by James' outlaw-partner Robert Ford to a failed romance.
The song reached #14 on the Billboard Hot 100 in February 1976, but failed to chart in the singer's native United Kingdom.
A live version, recorded in Scotland in 1977 with just Elton on piano and Ray Cooper on percussion, was released by MCA Records on the "To Be Continued ..." boxed set.
