Текст песни Guitar or a Gun - Will Hoge

A cool September morning, waitin' on the pawn shop to let me in
200 dollars worth of summer yard mowin' that I just had to spend
I had my eye on two things, but I could only pick just one
A young man's first decision, is it a guitar or a gun?

I can still hear daddy's voice say, "Now, think about it, son
One of these will last forever, and the other's just for fun
One can feed your family, and one will end you up in jail"
And he seemed to know which one was which, but me, I couldn't tell

I could learn to shoot like Jesse James, out there on the run
Or play guitar and be a Rolling Stone, well, that just sounds like fun
A rockstar or an outlaw, well, either way I've won
When I walk out this door with a guitar or a gun

I've thought about it long and hard, as I held 'em in my hand
Standin' at the crossroads, still deciding who I am
They're both just wood and metal, six bullets or six strings?
Whichever choice I make, I'll leave here feeling like a king

When I learn to shoot like Jesse James, out there on the run
Or play guitar and be a Rolling Stone, well, that just sounds like fun
A rockstar or an outlaw, well, either way I've won
When I walk out this door with a guitar or a gun

A cool September morning, waitin' on the pawn shop to let me in
200 dollars worth of summer yard mowin' that I just had to spend

Should I learn to shoot like Jesse James, out there on the run
Or play guitar and be a Rolling Stone, well, that just sounds like fun
A rockstar or an outlaw, well, either way I've won
When I walk out this door with a guitar or a gun
When I walk out this door with a guitar or a gun
(With a guitar or a gun)
