gun's blues - john donne (folk) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
put a mask on it, baby, if you think that they can tell
put the fix on it, honey, if the thing ain’t working well
when they lay me in my grave with a smile on my face
’cause i found it sorta funny that i died while saying grace

[verse 2]
stick a knife in it, darling, if you think it’s gonna live
tie a noose ’round it, sugar, while it’s squealing like a pig
when they wake me up the day that they’re gonna put me down
i’ll be thankful for the fact that i can stop hanging around

[verse 3]
i’ll tell you a joke, johnny was having a smoke
it was a beautiful day, the rain was going away, my baby
there in the sun, i watched him cleaning his gun
and when i got back in bed
he shot himself in the head, my baby

[verse 4]
i’ll sing you a song, this life’s a little too long
it was a real drag to clean, on easter 1916, my baby
what a surprise, then, when he opened his eyes
and can you say, sister sue what peter cottontail knew?
