"Don't Take Your Guns To Town" |
| [00:06.62] |
|
| [00:07.52] |
A young cowboy named Billy Joe grew restless on the farm |
| [00:11.86] |
A boy filled with wonderlust who really meant no harm |
| [00:16.66] |
He changed his clothes and shined his boots |
| [00:19.86] |
And combed his dark hair down |
| [00:21.92] |
And his mother cried as he walked out |
| [00:24.33] |
|
| [00:25.19] |
|
| [00:25.81] |
Don't take your guns to town son |
| [00:27.94] |
Leave your guns at home Bill |
| [00:30.50] |
Don't take your guns to town |
| [00:36.38] |
|
| [00:37.23] |
He laughed and kissed his mom |
| [00:41.62] |
And said your Billy Joe's a man |
| [00:43.87] |
I can shoot as quick and straight as anybody can |
| [00:47.71] |
But I wouldn't shoot without a cause |
| [00:52.77] |
I'd gun nobody down |
| [00:54.82] |
But she cried again as he rode away |
| [00:58.74] |
|
| [00:59.23] |
|
| [00:59.63] |
Don't take your guns to town son |
| [01:03.05] |
Leave your guns at home Bill |
| [01:05.45] |
Don't take your guns to town |
| [01:10.57] |
|
| [01:13.21] |
He sang a song as on he rode |
| [01:17.29] |
His guns hung at his hips |
| [01:19.00] |
He rode into a cattle town |
| [01:22.37] |
A smile upon his lips |
| [01:25.16] |
He stopped and walked into a bar |
| [01:27.70] |
And laid his money down |
| [01:30.03] |
But his mother's words echoed again |
| [01:33.69] |
|
| [01:34.66] |
|
| [01:34.98] |
Don't take your guns to town son |
| [01:38.57] |
Leave your guns at home Bill |
| [01:40.93] |
Don't take your guns to town |
| [01:46.16] |
|
| [01:48.36] |
He drank his first strong liquor then to calm his shaking hand |
| [01:51.95] |
And tried to tell himself he had become a man |
| [01:59.27] |
A dusty cowpoke at his side began to laugh him down |
| [02:05.02] |
And he heard again his mothers words |
| [02:08.83] |
|
| [02:09.23] |
|
| [02:09.67] |
Don't take your guns to town son |
| [02:13.35] |
Leave your guns at home Bill |
| [02:16.23] |
Don't take your guns to town |
| [02:20.43] |
|
| [02:22.39] |
Filled with rage then |
| [02:26.12] |
Billy Joe reached for his gun to draw |
| [02:28.94] |
But the stranger drew his gun and fired |
| [02:33.13] |
Before he even saw |
| [02:34.35] |
As Billy Joe fell to the floor |
| [02:38.48] |
The crowd all gathered 'round |
| [02:40.50] |
And wondered at his final words |
| [02:43.78] |
|
| [02:44.10] |
|
| [02:44.52] |
Don't take your guns to town son |
| [02:47.91] |
Leave your guns at home Bill |
| [02:51.25] |
Don't take your guns to town |
| [02:55.35] |
|
| [02:57.26] |
|
| [02:57.84] |
|
| [03:02.31] |
