Buy a Gun (Get a Free Guitar)

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I walked into the pawn shop when I saw the sign They were runnin' a special for a limited time I walked in and I picked the .45 caliber that was in the display case The old man behind the counter sittin' he said you get a free guitar then he slapped me hard in the face He said you buy a gun you get a free guitar Let me tell you my story [Verse 2] He threw me the keys to his old Cadillac He gave me some bullets and a guitar strap In the glovebox you'll find directions to a bar I got you a gig there tonight, you can take my car [Refrain] I got a gun and a free guitar [Verse 3] I played that smoky ballroom like I never did before I was drinkin' whiskey, they were dancin' on the floor I stopped in the middle of a song and I drew that .45 I gunned down some son of a bitch, I got the car and took a ride [Refrain] Buy a gun get a free guitar [Verse 4] When I touched that gun, I got a creepy thrill But when I played that guitar, I knew it was time to kill A gun can make you happy, a guitar can make you sad When you mix the two together, it's bound to turn out bad [Verse 5] I woke up hung over in that Cadillac I went to that pawn shop to take it all back The building was empty, nobody was in sight I never played guitar before and I just killed someone last night [Refrain] I got a gun and a free guitar [Verse 6] I opened the glovebox to find a hundred dollar bill A new [?] and new bullets to refill I did the same thing I did the night before Stopped in the middle of a song and left 'em bleeding on the floor [Refrain] Buy a gun get a free guitar [Verse 7] Now I roam the country killin' people who like my songs I wish I never went to be in that pawn shop, where did I go wrong? When I get the feeling I have lost my way I open up that glovebox, and find a new place to play [Refrain] I got a gun, and a free guitar [Verse 8] So if you see me playin' in some smokey bar Or parked down in the back is my old Cadillac car Don't come in to see me, no matter how good I sound You may wind up with a bullet, bleeding on the ground So buy a gun, get a free guitar I got a gun and a free guitar Dont come inside... Stay out I'll sing a special song for you Buy a gun, get a free guitar Bang bang
