rattlin bone - shoot me down lyrics

footsteps up behind me on a sat+rday night
seems like you can’t take a walk without taking a fright
i take a look discretely but i can’t see a face
i put my best foot down and start to increase my pace
underneath the lamplight as i’m starting to run
well! shoot me down it’s a man with a gun

lookee here mister i don’t have that much dough
but you can have what i’ve got if you just please let me go
i give him my wallet
he gives me a smile and says…
“you can leave here with your life, cos i appreciate your style!”
turn around the corner and i’m starting to run
well! shoot me down another man with a gun!

“i don’t have no money, i got nothing to lose!’
he says “that maybe so, but i quite like your shoes
and that shirt on your back well it fits you too loose!
anyway, i got the gun, i’ll just take what i choose!”
standing there naked as he takes off and runs
i see someone turn the corner it’s a…

standing stark naked
in a dead end lane
and i’m thinking to myself
well here i go again…
a policeman arrives just in the nick of time
and i’m thanking god i’m saved from such a personal crime
his eyes light up
he says “hi son!”
well i’m not sure of his intention but that b+st+rd’s pulled a gun…
shoot me down
it’s a man with a gun
shoot me down
it’s a man with a gun
shoot me down
it’s a man with a gun
shoot me down
it’s a man with a gun
underneath the lamplight as i’m starting to run…
