Armed with an empty gun |
|
and no one to call my bluff |
|
the guardsmen at the border |
|
were afraid to play it rough |
|
I was armed with an empty gun |
|
I was armed with an empty gun |
|
yeah |
|
I was armed with an empty gun |
|
and nothing to get in my way |
|
my baby aits on the doorstep |
|
her mother begs her to stay |
|
my head is pounding with fever |
|
and I'm too weary to run |
|
my fingers are limp on the trigger |
|
cause I'm armed with an empty gun |
|
I was armed with an empty gun |
|
(guitar) |
|
Armed with an empty gun |
|
I was stuck in Santa Fe |
|
this man says What are you holding |
|
Let me put it this way |
|
I said At night I go to sleep |
|
and in the morning I waken |
|
he said I think I know you |
|
I said I think you're mistaken |
|

|
Well I was lookin for real persuasion |
|
then just as I'd begun |
|
he looked in my hand |
|
he walked off away |
|
I was armed with an empty gun |
|
I was armed with an empty gun |
|
I was armed with an empty gun yeah wow |
|

|
