Or about the fire his Grandchildren started,
Little Mary, made her mind up,
Jake turned out to be the Black Sheep,
Well I tried to help him see,
Little Mary, and her brothers,
Or about the Gas they poured instead of water,
Oh how life gets so confusin’

Little Mary, took the matches,
But blamed it on her brother Jake;
Old Fisherman, eats what he catches,
But he don’t know what’s in the lake
Hey, It’s burnin’ hotter than the Sun;
He dont’t know about his daughter,
He’s lived his life by Sword & Gun
Brother Bill, he wavers still;
Old Politician, with no position,
just can’t seem to get his fill
Little Mary’s now a Nun
Oh how life gets so confusing,
Livin’ life by Sword Gun
Well I tried to help him through;
Well I tried but now, I’m over it,
I got to leave, got to leave you
Ran with buckets in their hands;
Old Fisherman, dreams of another,
He don’t know about their plans
Hey, it’s burnin’ hotter; than the sun
He don’t know about their sorrow,
He’s lived his life by Sword & Gun
Livin’ life by Sword & Gun
