Songteksten U2 Don't Take Your Guns To Town songtekst:
A young boy named Billy Joe, restless on the farm
A boy filled with wanderlust, who never really meant no harm
He changed his clothes and he shined his boots
And he combed his dark hair down
But his mama cried as he walked out:
'Don't take your guns to town
mfp!i,ns,e!eppi
Don't take your guns to town
mfp!i,ns,e!eppi
Don't take your guns to town'
He laughed and kissed his mom and said 'Your Billy Joe he's the man
I can shoot as quick, I can shoot as straight, as anybody, can
But I wouldn't shoot, without a cause, or gun nobody down'
But she cried again as he rode away:
'Don't take your guns to town
mfp!i,ns,e!eppi
Son, leave your guns at home
Don't take your guns to town'
Well he drank his first strong liquor then to calm his shaking hands
And he tried, he tried to tell himself at last he had become a man
But a dusty cowpoke stood at his side, began to laugh him down
And he heard again his mother's words:
'Don't take your guns to town
mfp!i,ns,e!eppi
Son, leave your guns at home
Don't take your guns'
Don't take your guns.
Don't take your guns to town
mfp!i,ns,e!eppi
Don't take your guns.
Don't take your guns to town
mfp!i,ns,e!eppi
Filled with rage then Billy Joe reached for his gun to draw
But the stranger drew his gun and fired before he even saw
As Billy Joe fell to the floor the crowd all gathered around
And wondered at his final words:
'Don't take your guns to town
mfp!i,ns,e!eppi
Son, leave your guns at home
Don't take your guns to town' | | |
