The Gun

Back then it was only fun, something we'd always done
Smash it up, then you run
Without a gun
But something came up one day, some bills you couldn't pay
And you got carried away, oh so far away

They wanna use ya, they wanna lose ya
They make your father singing hallelujah
I wanna help ya, so let me help ya
I gotta ask you, buddy, where did you find the gun?

I ask everybody, have they seen ya
Tell 'em you are fine, and they believe ya
Gimme a call, and I see through ya, you wasted your life
Where did you find the gun?

The Holymans only son, your mother on iron lung
No money from anyone, but now you've got a gun
Stick up on second street, I heard your running feet
Lay down, get a seat, and beg them for mercy

They wanna use ya, they wanna lose ya
They make your father singing hallelujah
I wanna help ya, let me help ya
I gotta ask you, buddy, where did you find the gun?

I ask everybody, have they seen ya
Tell 'em you are fine, and they believe ya
Gimme a call, and I see through ya, you wasted your life
Where did you find the gun?

By an accident you find yourself
On the slammer with too much friends
You shot an officer, you shot him down
Now your young life is gone
You're older than you are, you're gone
Because you had the gun

I ask everybody, have they seen ya
Tell 'em you are fine, and they believe ya
Gimme a call, and I see through ya, you wasted your life
Where did you find the gun?

They try to make you pay and they will find ya
You try to hide away but they have seen ya
Rest while you can, believe me now, you gotta run for your life
Where did you find the gun?

Where did you find the gun?
Find the gun
