My neighbors car got stole last night
right out of his driveway.
We heard the dogs barking,
we never paid them any mind.
And mary says shes gonna lock the door
from now on when we go away.
Ive been walking around this farm
wondering if its time…
Time to get a gun.
Thats what Ive been thinking.
I could afford one,
if I did just a little less drinking.
Time to put something,
between me and the sun.
When the talking is over
its time to get a gun.
Last week a government man was there
when I walked out my back door.
He said im sorry to bother you
it dont matter anymore
ause even while we were talking
right here where we stand,
they give plans for a four lane highway
and a big old overpass.
Its time to get a gun
thats what ive been thinking
I could afford one
if I did just a little less drinking.
Time to put something
between me and the sun.
When the talking is over
its time to get a gun.
Mary says shes worried
about her stuff and her kids.
Never known anybody had a gun
and her daddy never did.
But I think it should be up to me
cause when its all said and done
somebodys gotta walk into the night
and Im gonna be that one.
Its time to get a gun
thats what Im thinking.
I could afford one
if I did just a little less drinking.
Its time to put something
between me and the sun.
When the talking is over
its time to get a gun.
When the party is over
its time to get a gun.
