Live by the Gun, Die by the Gun

lyrics

Verse
From the out skirts of town, came that high lonesome sound.
the tears of the mother who's son never returned back home
the tears in her eyes, came to no surprise
if her son only would have listened to her advice.

Chorus
He lived by the gun, died by the gun

Verse 2
Your brothers died, before their time, running from the law
the sheriff that hung them high, also strung up Pa
I'll be damned if the man will get my one last son
I'll be all alone with my family dead and gone

Chours
They lived by the gun, died by the gun

Verse 3
He rode into town to finish what the sheriff had begun
the only way to right this wrong is with a bullet and a gun
at high noon at Frank's saloon they drew at the count of ten
when the shots rang out and smoke cleared, young Johnny laid down dead

Chorus

He lived by the gun, died by the gun
