ritty mcgarretty - give up your guns lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
when i woke up this morning
i found myself alone
i turned to touch her hair but she was gone
she was gone

[chorus]
and there beside my pillow
were her tears from the night before
she said: ”give up your guns and face the law”

[verse 2]
i robbed a bank in tampa
and i thought i had it made
but, the hounds picked up my trail within the glades
so, i ran!

[chorus]
and i stumbled on this cabin
and she came to me once more
she said: “give up your guns and face the law”

[bridge]
i don’t wanna leavе her!
i don’t wanna die!
deep within a cold, cold grave
with no onе ’round to cry
but i’ve got my pistol
now, it’s time to choose
shooting here or hanging there
and either way i lose
[verse 3]
and now i’m in this cabin
where my own true love should be
instead there lies a note she wrote to me
and it says:

[chorus]
“no! you can’t live by the bullet
but you sure as death can die
my love! give up your guns or say goodbye, goodbye!”

[post+chorus]
and the sheriff now is calling
with his shotgun at my door:
“son! give up your guns
and face the law”
