Back To The Gun

There's Rosie Malone, found him a home
Got caught in the yard trying to bury his bones
Back to the gun, back to the gun

Like Jimmie McNeil, took the wrong pill
Lost control of his car on the side of a hill
Back to the gun, back to the gun

Like Billy the Kid, did what he did
'Cause he never found out where the money was hid
Back to the gun, he went back to the gun
He went back
Back to the gun

There's Father O'Shay, big in his day
Thought he'd gambled more than he knew he could pay
Back to the gun, back to the gun

Now Benny the Brain, drove'em insane
So they shot him in the back on a county two-lane
Back to the gun, back to the gun

Like Jimmy the Nose, swallowed his blow
Wound up downtown with a tag on his toe
Back to the gun, back to the gun
We're back
Back to the gun

Now there's Joey the Eyes, wore a disguise
Tried so hard to Americanize
Back to the gun, back to the gun

Danbury Bob and Louie the Snob,
Couldn't find a job so they started to rob
They went back to the gun, back to the gun

Well from Antioch down to Little Rock
To the chiming of the bell on the old town clock
Back to the gun, we've gone back to the gun
We're back
Back to the gun
Back to the gun
Goin' back to the gun
Back to the gun
