My neighbour's car got stole last night
|
Right out of his driveway
|
We heard the dogs a'barking
|
We didn't pay 'em any mind
|
Mary says she's gonna lock the door
|
From now on when we go away
|
And I've been walkin' around this farm
|
Wondering if it's time
|
Time to get a gun
|
That's what I've been thinking
|
I could afford one
|
If I did just a little less drinking
|
Time to put something
|
Between me and the sun
|
When the talking is over
|
It's time to get a gun
|
Last week the government man was there
|
When I walked out of my back door
|
He said I'm sorry to bother you, son
|
But it don't matter anymore
|
'Cause even while we're talkin'
|
Right here where we stand
|
They're making plans for a four lane highway
|
And a big old overpass
|
Time to get a gun
|
That's what I've been thinking
|
I could afford one
|
If I did just a little less drinking
|
Time to put something
|
Between me and the sun
|
When the talking is over
|
It's time to get a gun
|
Mary says she's worried
|
About herself and the kids
|
She's never known anybody had a gun
|
And her daddy never did
|
But I think it should be up to me
|
'Cause when it's all said and done
|
Somebody's got to walk into the night
|
Well, I'm gonna be that one
|
Time to get a gun
|
That's what I've been thinking
|
I could afford one
|
If I did a little less drinking
|
Time to put something
|
Between me and the sun
|
When the talking is over
|
I'ts time to get a gun
|
When the talking is over
|
It's time to get a gun
|
When the talking is over
|
It's time to get a gun
|
