Loaded Gun

I lay my head by my pistol And close my eyes and pray These memories, they haunt me, baby But the rot-gut whiskey Make the pain go 'way, yeah Many miles on these old roads Many miles ahead I been runnin' for so long, mama If I slow down I might wind up dead You can knock me down And drag me through the mud You can break my bones and Spill all my blood You can light me up on fire Spit venom in my eye But you better run Let me tell you son I'm a loaded gun Many scars on this bad man Not a tear in sight These callused hands, boy They quick like lightning And these blood shot eyes Still sharp at night Some days I hear them angels Try to steer me right Other times, Lord, I just can't hear 'em So I grab that wind and I hold on tight (Oh yeah) You can knock me down And drag me through the mud You can break my bones and Spill all my blood You can light me up on fire Spit venom in my eye But you better run Let me tell you son I'm a loaded gun You can knock me down And drag me through the mud You can break my bones and Spill all my blood You can light me up on fire Spit venom in my eye But you better run Let me tell you son You can try to hold me down But I'ma keep on risin' up Better say a prayer 'Cause I'ma send you to the Lord above You can light me up on fire Spit venom in my eye But you better run Let me tell you son 'Til that reaper come I'm a loaded gun Yeah, I'm a loaded gun
