I'm a gambler
And I'm a runner
But you knew that
When you lay down
I'm a picture
Of ugly stories
I'm a killer
And I'm a clown
Step into the street by sundown
Step into your last goodbye
You're a target just by living
Twenty dollars will make you die
I wear lace
And I wear black leather
My hands are lightning up
On my gun
My shots are clean
And my, my shots are final
My shots are deadly
And when it's done
You're as stiff as my smoking barrel
You're as dead as a desert night
You're a notch
And I'm a legend
You're at peace
And I must hide
Tell where the hell I'm going
Let my bones fall in the dust
Can't you hear that ghost that's calling
As my Colt begins to rust
In the dust
I'm a killer
I'm a clown
I'm a priest
That's gone to town
Loves a Loaded Gun
Somebody saw you at the station
You had your suitcase in your hand
You didn’t give no information
You walked off with another man
I’m alwaays standing in the shadows, baby
I watched you ugive yourself away
You take them home into your bedroom
You had another busy day
I tried to look the other way and fake it
You push me to the limits
I can’t take it
Chorus
One down, one to go
Just another bullet in the chamber
Sometimes love’s a loaded gun
Red lights, stop and go
Whatcha gonna do when yo play with danger
Sometimes love’s a loaded gun
And it shoots to kill
Someday they’ll put me in a squad card
Someday they’ll throw away the key
But ’til that day I’ll be a mad dog
Cuz that’s what you taught me to be
You looked into the eyes of men above you
I was the one who really tried to love you
Chorus
Pull the trigger
I tried to look the other way and fake it
You know, you push me right to the limit
I can’t take it
Chorus
Somebody saw you at the station
