irving berlin - you can't get a man with a gun lyrics

oh, my mother was frightened by a shotgun, they say
thats why i’m such a wonderful shot.
i’d be out in the cactus and i’d practice all day,
and now tell me what have i got?
i’m quick on the trigger with targets not much bigger than a pinpoint
i’m number one, but my score with a feller
is lower than a celler, oh you can’t get a man with a gun.
when i’m with a pistol, i sparkle like a crystal
yes, i shine like the morning sun,
but i lose all my l-ster, when with a bronco buster,
oh you can’t get a man with a gun.
with a gu-un, with a gu-un, oh you can’t get a man with a gun
if i went to battle with someone’s herd of cattle
you’d have steak when the job was done.
but, if i shot the herder, they’d holler bl–dy murder
and you can’t shoot a male in the tail like a quail,
oh you can’t get a man with a gun.
i’m cool, brave, and daring to see a lion glaring
when i’m out with my remington.
but a look from a mister will raise a fever blister
oh you can’t get a man with a gun
the gals with umbrellas are always out with fellers
in the rain or the blazin sun
but a man never trifles with gals who carry rifles
oh you can’t get a man with a gun.
with a gu-un, with a gu-un, oh you can’t get a man with a gun.
a man’s love is mighty, he’ll even buy a nightie
for a gal who he thinks is fun.
but they don’t buy pajamas for pistol packin mamas
and you can’t get a hug from a mug, with a slug
oh you can’t get a man with a gun.
