Guitar Or A Gun

Intro: (2X) A cool September morning, waitin' on the pawn shop to let me in Two Hundred Dollars worth of summer yard mowin', that I just had to spend I had my eye on two things, but I could only pick just one A young man's first decision; is it a guitar or a gun? I can still hear daddy's voice say "now think about it sonâ?� ’One of these will last forever, and the other's just for fun One can feed your family, and one will end you up in jail" And he seemed to know which one was which, but me, I couldn't tell I could learn to shoot like Jesse James, out there on the run, Play guitar and be a Rolling Stone, well that just sounds like fun A rock star or an outlaw, well, either way I've won, When I walk out this door with a guitar or a gun I've thought about it long and hard, as I held 'em in my hand Standin' at the crossroads, still decidin’ who I am They're both just wood and metal. Six bullets or six strings Whichever choice I make I'll leave here feeling like a king I could learn to shoot like Jesse James, out there on the run, Play guitar and be a Rolling Stone, well that just sounds like fun A rock star or an outlaw, well, either way I've won When I walk out this door with a guitar or a gun Bridge: A cool September morning, waitin' on the pawn shop to let me in Two Hundred Dollars worth of summer yard mowin', that I just had to spend Should I learn to shoot like Jesse James, out there on the run, Play guitar and be a Rolling Stone, well that just sounds like fun A rock star or an outlaw, well, either way I've won When I walk out this door with a guitar or a gun When I walk out this door with a guitarâ........... or a gun With a guitar or a gun
