When I first saw your face, you turned my world upside down
You threw my heart into a headlock, and you threw it on the ground
You stood and stomped, you stepped on it, you kicked it all around
Like some empty can of Miller, or some mangy blue tick hound
Yeah but a rolling heart got its no muscle
In shit and sticks and stones
So I left those days behind me and I struck out on my own
Now it's three o'clock in the morning, and you call me on the phone
You say your life has gone to horseshit
And you want to come back home
Well if you're thinking 'bout coming down
Better think again, better look around
Don't go trying to mess with my head
Because I got myself a gun, and I'm gonna shoot you dead
See I got myself another, but she ain't nothing like you, dear
She don't feel the need to slap me, or stick pencils in my ear
So what's she have that you ain't got to spur this little tryst?
Well, there's sanity for starters; oh, hell, I'll just make a list
And yeah, I'm getting married, just let me clear the air
Hell no, you're not invited, but I know that you don't care
'Cause you'll be there with guns and goofy ribbons in your hair
So I made me a big ol' sign that says "Crazy children, hags beware!"
So if you're thinking 'bout coming down
Better think again, better look around
Don't go trying to mess with my head
Because I got myself a gun, and I'm gonna shoot you dead
So you think I'm overreacting, and you think I've gone too far
Well, that's something I considered, until you tied yourself to my car
I still see you in my rearview mirror, your hands and face all scarred
And it was just then that I realized what a loon you really are
So if you're thinking 'bout coming down
Better think again, better look around
Don't go trying to mess with my head
Because I got myself a gun, and I'm gonna shoot you dead
Yeah if you're thinking 'bout coming down
Better think again, better look around
Don't go trying to mess with my head
Because I got myself a gun, and I'm gonna shoot you dead
I got myself a gun, and I'm gonna shoot you dead
I got myself a gun
Yeah, and I'm gonna shoot you dead
