Big Red Gun

Brothers in arms who share my fears
Time to protect what you hold dear
There’s been a rise in new ideals
Threatening to change the way we live

Who knows what trouble’s found a way
Found a way to your door today
Who knows what trouble’s on its way
On its way to intimidate

All I want is a big red gun
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah oh
I’m gonna shoot, shoot, shoot at the setting sun
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah oh
And all I want is a big red gun
I’m gonna shoot, shoot, shoot till the thrill is gone
‘Cause this is my right no matter the cost
Get outta my sight when baby’s got a big red gun
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah oh
Baby’s got a big red gun
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah oh

Pride is a weapon in your hand
Freedom awards the faithful man
I hear the message loud and clear
Straight from his lips into my ear

And Lord I just can’t walk away
Walk away from the enemy
The law will never disagree
On the target of my insecurities

All I want is a big red gun
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah oh
I’m gonna shoot, shoot, shoot at the setting sun
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah oh
And all I want is a big red gun
I’m gonna shoot, shoot, shoot till the thrill is gone
And how many lives will have to be lost
To understand why my baby’s got a big red gun?

Baby’s got a big red gun
Baby’s got a big red gun
Baby’s got a big red gun
Baby’s got a big red gun

We call them twisted and deranged
(Baby’s got a big red gun)
But we gave them the keys to annihilate
(Baby’s got a big red gun)
How long before the next one’s in the ground?
(Baby’s got a big red gun)
So proud of all your history
(Baby’s got a big red gun)
But history made a big mistake
(Baby’s got a big red gun)
The judge and jury stand before you now
(Baby’s got a big red gun)

‘Cause baby’s got a big red gun
Baby’s got a big red gun
Baby’s got a big red gun
Oh momma what have I become?
