Charm of a Gun

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Nick Beggs] Last night a lady came knocking at my door Knock, knock, open up, ain't seen her before "What's your name?" she said to me, "You look the playful kind I am the angel you require, come to waste your time" [Verse 2: Nick Beggs] So I took some time to cool out, chase away the fear A man comes up to offer me some heavy smoking gear I said no thanks a lot, I don't shoot that stuff He looked mad, a gun came out, "no" ain't good enough [Pre-Chorus: Nick Beggs & Lezlee Cowling] Stop and look around, or maybe you won't get much older People with ambition, there is danger round the corner [Chorus: Nick Beggs & Lezlee Cowling] Some people live on the streets by night And calm with a charm of a gun Some people live on the streets alright And calm with a charm of a gun [Verse 3: Nick Beggs] In this world we're living in, a very narrow line Separates sanity, we cross it all the time If by chance the lunatic gets the final vote This can be your serenade, I will row the boat [Pre-Chorus: Nick Beggs & Lezlee Cowling] If you're passing through you better keep your engine running Keep from asking questions if you want to keep on living [Chorus: Nick Beggs & Lezlee Cowling] Some people live on the streets by night And calm with a charm of a gun Some people live on the streets alright And calm with a charm of a gun Some people live on the streets by night And calm with a charm of a gun Some people live on the streets alright And calm with a charm of a gun [Guitar Solo: Michael Thompson] [Chorus: Nick Beggs & Lezlee Cowling] Some people live on the streets by night And calm with a charm of a gun Some people live on the streets alright And calm with a charm of a gun [Outro: Lezlee Cowling] Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, oh-oh Ooh, calm with the charm of a gun Oh yeah, oh Calm with the charm of a gun Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah Oh, calm with the charm, charm of a gun Of a gun, ooh, yeah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah Ooh, oh-ah Calm of a, with the calm of a gun Oh-oh-oh
