Brothers in arms who share my fears, Time to protect what you hold dear There's been a rise in new ideals, Threatening to change the way we live Who knows what trouble's found a way, Found a way to your door today Who knows what trouble's on its way, On its way to intimidate All I want is a big red gun Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah oh I'm gonna shoot, shoot, shoot at the setting sun Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah oh And all I want is a big red gun, I'm gonna shoot, shoot, shoot till the thrill is gone 'Cause this is my right no matter the cost Get outta my sight when baby's got a big red gun Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah oh Baby's got a big red gun Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah oh Pride is a weapon in your hand Freedom awards the faithful man I hear the message loud and clear, Straight from his lips into my ear And lord I just can't walk away, Walk away from the enemy The law will never disagree, On the target of my insecurities All I want is a big red gun Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah oh I'm gonna shoot, shoot, shoot at the setting sun Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah oh And all I want is a big red gun, I'm gonna shoot, shoot, shoot till the thrill is gone And how many lives will have to be lost to understand why my baby's got a big red gun? (Baby's got a big red gun) We call them twisted and deranged (baby's got a big red gun) But we gave them the keys to annihilate (baby's got a big red gun) How long before the next one's in the ground? (Baby's got a big red gun) So proud of all your history (baby's got a big red gun) But history made a big mistake (baby's got a big red gun) The judge and jury stand before you now (baby's got a big red gun) 'Cause baby's got a big red gun Baby's got a big red gun Baby's got a big red gun Oh momma what have I become?
