Kind of evil make me want to grab my sub-mo-chine."

"Crossfire" by Jethro Tull:

Spring light in a hazy May
And a man with a gun at the door
Someone's crawling on the roof above
All the media here for the show
I've been waiting for our friends to come
Like spiders down ropes to free-fall
A thirty-round clip for a visiting card
Admit one to the embassy ball

(chorus)
Caught in the crossfire on Princes Gate Avenue
In go the windows and out go the lights
Call me a doctor, fetch me a policeman
I'm down on the floor in one hell of a fight

I'm just a soul with an innocent face
A regular boy dressed in blue
Conducting myself in a proper way
As befitting the job that I do
They came down on me like a ton of bricks
Swept off my feet, knocked about
There's nothing for it but to sit and wait
For the hard men to get me out

(chorus)

Calm reason floats from the street below
And the slow fuse burns through the night
Everyone's tried to talk it through
But they can't seem to get the deal right
Somewhere there are Brownings in a two-hand hold
Cocked and locked, one up the spout
There's nothing for it but to sit and wait
For the hard men to get me out

(chorus)

Based on the Iranian embassy siege in London in 1980, from the perspective of a British constable who was trapped in the building when the terrorists seized it.

Leslie Fish, "No High Ground" (among many gun-related songs of hers):

Up to the dusty attic, out with the trusty gun,
The law book and the lawyer only go so far.
Sooner or later push going to come to shove.
Don't think it won't happen where you are.

Another potential one: "Me and My .30-06", by Joe Bethancourt:

I like to punch holes in pieces of paper
At a thousand yards or so
Me and my thirty ought six have a good time
That's where I like to go
I don't care for fishing, and I don't drink at all
Nor camping far out in the sticks
I just like to punch holes in pieces of paper
Me and my thirty ought six!

I'm not a redneck, I wear my hair long
And I've got a college degree
I like to read books, and I don't beat my wife
I protect the ecology
I'm not a right-wing militia fanatic
But I do like to get my kicks
Punching small holes in pieces of paper
Me and my thirty ought six!

I've never shot anyone, nor has my gun
I try to be good every day
I don't understand why I have to be punished
By taking my firearm away
Am I some kind of rabid, unspeakable beast
'Cause my fav'rite relaxing trick
Is punching small holes in pieces of paper
Me and my thirty ought six?

So please, Mr. Congressman, think about me
As you sit 'neath the Capitol dome
I'm just one guy of two hundred million
Sitting back here at home
I'm no one important, I'm not very rich
But -I VOTE- on Elections Day's mix:
Punching small holes in pieces of paper ....
Me and my thirty ought six!

This is a great thread!!!

from "the man who started it all" : Jimmie Rodgers - Pistol Packing Papa.

A few more:
Whiskey in the Jar - by (insert your favorite here)
I'm Ready - Muddy Waters
Shotgun - Sam and Dave
Shotgun and a Pistol - Merle Haggard and Willie Nelson

Robert Earl Keen

Tom Ames Prayer and Road goes on forever are great outlaw songs involving guns:

Tom Ames Prayer:

Everyone in Nacodoches
Knew Tom Ames would come to a bad end
'Cause the sheriff caught him
Stealin' chickens and such by the time he was ten

One day his Daddy took a ten dollar bill
And tucked it in his hand
He said I know you're headed for trouble son
Your Momma wouldn't understand

So he took his Dad's money and his brother's old bay
He left without a word of thanks
He fell in with this crowd in some border town
And he took to robbing banks

Outside the law his luck a- run out fast
A few years came and went
'Til he's trapped in an alley in Abilene
With all but four shells spent

And he realized prayin' was the only thing
That he hadn't ever tried
Well he wasn't sure he quite knew how
But he looked up to the sky

He said you don't owe me nothin' and as far as I know Lord
I don't owe nothin' to you
I ain't askin' for a miricle Lord
Just a little bit of luck will do

You know I ain't never prayed before
'Cause it always seemed to me
That prayin's the same as beggin' Lord
I don't take no charity

but right now Lord with my back to the wall
I can't help but recall
How they nearly hung me for stealin' a horse
In Fort Smith, Arkansas

Judge Parker said guilty and the gavel came down
Just like a cannon shot
I went away quietly
I began to file a plot

They sent the preacher down to my cell
He said the Lord's your only hope
He's the only friend you're gonna have son
When you hit the end of Parker's rope

And I guess he could have kept preachin' till Christmas
but he turned his back on me
I put a homemade blade to that golden throat
Asked the deputy for the key

It ain't the first trouble I've seen before
As you already know
I've had some help from you Lord and the Devil himself's
been strictly touch and go

Yeah but who in the hell am I talkin' to
There ain't no one here but me
So he cocked both his pistols and he spit in the dirt
And he walked out into that street




Road Goes on Forever:

Sherry was a waitress at the only joint in town
She had a reputation as a girl who'd been around
Down Main Street after midnight with a brand new pack of cigs
A fresh one hangin' from her lips and a beer between her legs
She'd ride down to the river and meet with all her friends
The road goes on forever and the party never ends

Sonny was a loner he was older than the rest
He was going into the Navy but he couldn't pass the test
So he hung around town he sold a little pot
The law caught wind of Sonny and one day he got caught
But he was back in business when they set him free again
The road goes on forever and the party never ends

Sonny's playin' 8-ball at the joint where Sherry works
When some drunken outta towner put his hand up Sherry's skirt
Sonny took his pool cue laid the drunk out on the floor
Stuffed a dollar in her tip jar and walked on out the door
She's runnin' right behind him reachin' for his hand
The road goes on forever and the party never ends

They jumped into his pickup Sonny jammed her down in gear
Sonny looked at Sherry and said lets get on outta here
The stars were high above them and the moon was in the east
The sun was settin' on them when they reached Miami Beach
They got a hotel by the water and a quart of Bombay gin
The road goes on forever and the party never ends

They soon ran out of money but Sonny knew a man
Who knew some Cuban refugees that delt in contraband
Sonny met the Cubans in a house just off the route
With a briefcase full of money and a pistol in his boot
The cards were on the table when the law came bustin' in
The road goes on forever and the party never ends

The Cubans grabbed the goodies and Sonny grabbed the Jack
He broke a bathroom window and climbed on out the back
Sherry drove the pickup through the alley on the side
Where a lawman tackled Sonny and was reading him his rights
She stepped into the alley with a single shot .410
The road goes on forever and the party never ends

They left the lawman lyin' and they made their getaway
They got back to the motel just before the break of day
Sonny gave her all the money and he blew her a little kiss
If they ask you how this happened say I forced you into this
She watched him as his taillights disappeared around the bend
The road goes on forever and the party never ends

Its Main Street after midnight just like it was before
21 months later at the local grocery store
Sherry buys a paper and a cold 6-pack of beer
The headlines read that Sonny is goin' to the chair
She pulls back onto Main Street in her new Mercedes Benz
The road goes on forever and the party never ends


Of course, I am not advocating outlawism - but I am a sucker for an outlaw story. REK rules.

Cows with Guns

x2 for that one

 

[Kjervin]

Here's my two

Family Snapshot by Peter Gabriel

The streets are lined with camera crews
Everywhere he goes is news
Today is different
Today is not the same
Today I make the action
Take snapshot into the light, snapshot into the light
I'm shooting into the light

Four miles down the cavalcade moves on
Driving into the sun
If I worked it out right
They won't see me or the gun

Two miles to go, they're clearing the road
The cheering has really begun
I've got my radio
I can hear what's going on

I've been waiting for this
I have been waiting for this
All you people in TV land
I will wake up your empty shells
Peak-time viewing blown in a flash
As I burn into your memory cells
'Cos I'm alive

They're coming 'round the corner with the bikers at the front
I'm wiping the sweat from my eyes
-It's a matter of time
-It's a matter of will
And the governor's car is not far behind
He's not the one I've got in mind
'Cos there he is-the man of the hour, standing in the limousine
"I don't really hate you
-I don't care what you do
We were made for each other
-Me and you
I want to be somebody
-You were like that too
If you don't get given you learn to take
And I will take you."

Holding my breath
Release the catch
And I let the bullet fly

All turned quiet-I have been here before
Lonely boy hiding behind the front door
Friends have all gone home
There's my toy gun on the floor
Come back Mum and Dad
You're growing apart
You know that I'm growing up sad
I need some attention
I shoot into the light


Sixty-eight Guns by the Alarm

And now they’re trying to take my life away
Forever young I cannot stay
Hey
On every corner I can see them there
They don’t know my name they don’t know my kind
They’re after you with their promises
(promises of love)
They’re after you to sign your life away
(yeah, yeaoh)

Sixty-eight guns will never die
Sixty-eight guns our battle cry
Sixty-eight guns
Sixty-eight guns
Oh, the sixty-eight

Living in the backstreets
That’s our home from home
The painted walls were all we’ve ever known
‘the guns forever’ that’s our battle cry
It is the flag that we fly so high
For every day they’ll try and drag us down
(drag us down and down)
I cry with anger I have done no crime
No
(yeah, yeaoh)

Sixty-eight guns will never die
Sixty-eight guns our battle cry
Sixty-eight guns will never die
Sixty-eight guns our battle cry
Sixty-eight guns
Sixty-eight guns
The sixty-eight

Up on the terrace I can hear the crowd roar
Sixty eight guns
And in the subway I can hear them whisper
Sixty eight guns
Through all the raging glory of the years
We never once thought of the fears
For what we’d do when the battle cry was over .
Nothing lasts forever is all they seem to tell you when you’re young

(i, I do swear
To unbreak the promise
To unbreak the vow

Unbreak it)

When you’re young
Have no illusion, no disillusion

Unbreak the promise
Unbreak the vow
Uphold the promise

Sixty eight guns

Sixty-eight guns will never die
Sixty-eight guns our battle cry
Sixty-eight guns will never die
Sixty-eight guns our battle cry
Sixty-eight guns
Sixty-eight guns
The sixty eight guns
Sixty eight guns
The sixty eight guns

 

[wolf_from_wv]

Does anyone remember a song with a title something like:

15 men on routine patrol? It was about vietnam.

I used to listen to it as a kid on records that were probably 10 years older than me.

 

[No_Brakes23]

Just so everybody knows, Ronnie Van Zant of Lynyrd Skynyrd was very anti-gun, and the song Gimme Back my Bullets has nothing to do with guns. It is about the "bullets" on the billboard chart. You know "#1 with a bullet?"

Someone mentioned Rooster by Alice in Chains, but then quoted the lyrics as "Gloria sent me pictures of my boy", when the line is "Lawyers send me..."



I am a little surprised no one has mentioned Camoflage by Stan Ridgeway.

"I was a PFC on a search patrol huntin' Charlie down
It was in the jungle wars of '65
My weapon jammed and I got stuck way out and all alone
And I could hear the enemy movin' in close outside
Just then I heard a twing snap and I grabbed my empty gun
And I dug in scared while I counted down my fate
And then a big Marine, a giant with a pair of friendly eyes
Appeared there at my shoulder and said 'Wait!'
When he came in close beside me he said 'Don't worry, son, I'm here'
'If Charlie wants to tangle now they'll have two to dodge'
I said 'Well, thanks alot', I told him my name and asked him his
And he said 'The boys just call me Camouflage'

Whoa Camouflage, things are never quite the way they seem
Whoa Camouflage, I was awfully glad to see this big Marine

Well, I was gonna ask him where he came from
When we heard the bullets fly
Comin' through the brush and all around our ears
And then I saw that big Marine light a fire in his eye
And it was strange, but suddenly I forgot my fears

We fought all night and side by side, we took our battle stance
And I wondered how the bullets missed this man
'cause they seemed to go right through him just as if he wasn't there
And in the mornin' we both took a chance and ran
And it was here the river bank when the ambush came on top of us
And I'd thought it was the end and we were had
Then a bullet with my name on it came buzzin' through a bush
And that big Marine, he just swat it with his hands
Just like it was a fly!

Whoa Camouflage, things are never quite the way they seem
Whoa Camouflage, this was an awfully strange Marine

And I knew there was something weird about him
'cause when I turned around he was pullin' a big palm tree
right up out of the ground
and swattin' those charlies with it from here to kingdome come

When he led me out of danger, I saw my camp and waved goodbye
but he just winked at me from the jungle and then was gone
And when I got back to my HQ I told 'em about my night
And the battle I'd spent with a big Marine named Camouflage
When I said his name a soldier gulped and the medic took my arm
And led me to a green tent on the right
He said 'You may be tellin' true boy, but this here is Camouflage'
'And he's been right here since he passed away last night'
'In fact he's been here all week long'
'But before he went he said 'semper fi' and said his only wish'
'Was to save a young Marine caught in a barrage'
'So here, take his dog tag son, I know, he'd want you to have it now'
And we both said a prayer for a big Marine named Camouflage

Whoa Camouflage, things are never quite the way they seem
Whoa Camouflage, this was an awfully strange Marine

So, next time, you're in a jungle fight
And you feel a presence near
Or hear a voice that in your mind will lodge
Just be thankful that you're not alone
And you've got some company from a big Marine
The boys call Camouflage

Whoa Camouflage, things are never quite the way they seem
Whoa Camouflage, this was an awfully big Marine"

One I haven't seen is "Smackwater Jack" by Carol King.
One line..."you can't talk to a man with a shotgun in his hand..."
This is a fun subject/topic...tons of songs I've never heard of!

Havent seen this one yet either... my favorite of em

Chris Knight- Love and a .45




Badge number 301
Sits in his car and stares at his gun
He wipes the the blood from his shirt,
The sweat from his brow
He got out this time but he don't know how

Well he'd go on home but nobody's there
No one to hold no one to care
There was a time he had someone
But one day he came home, she was gone

Love and a .45
Are all you need to get through the night
One'll kill you one'll keep you alive
Love and a .45

Parole number fourteen two
Stands on the corner like she used to do
She's been away awhile so she's a little afraid
And the judge said he didn't want to see her again

But she's got no money she's got no rent
The money she had is already spent
Cause a couple of weeks ago she learned her lesson
Went and brought herself a little Smith and Wesson

Love and a .45
Are all you need to get through the night
One'll kill you one'll keep you alive
Love and a .45

At 3:15 he got a call, somebody heard a scream behind a wall
At a little motel down by the bay
But before he got there, they got away

Well she was all right just a little roughed up
So he took her down to the coffee shop
The report he filed said victim unknown
Now she waits up nights for him to come home

Love and a .45
Are all you need to get through the night
One'll kill you one'll keep you alive
Love and a .45

Love and a .45
Are all you need to get thru the night
One'll kill you one'll keep you alive
Love and a .45

Joe ely has a few good ones, Road goes on for ever, is a pretty good one. Rev Horton Heat has some good ones too.
My right hand holds a cold corona bottle

My left hand holds a half a fifth of Gin

My right arm reaches out for her love only

But my left still embraces a life of sin



We had ourselves the sweetest little family

We laughed and sang and had a lot of fun

But I drowned it in a sea of stinkin' whiskey

And now the only little love that's left is a loaded gun



My right hand holds a vile of trainqualizers

My left hand holds a loaded .38

I've got a young girl who's anticipating romance

But it's looking like she will have to wait



We had ourselves the sweetest little family

We laughed and sang and had a lot of fun

But I drowned it in a sea of stinkin' whiskey

And now the only little love that's left is a loaded gun

And now the only little love that's left is a loaded gun

Some good ones already mentioned, especially Lyle Lovett's LA County. "One year later, I left Houston, with an old friend by my side. Well it did not say much, but it was a beauty of a coal-black .45."
Chris Knight is also listed above, many of his songs have gunplay in them, it's good stuff.

One I haven't seen yet is Allen Wayne Damron, Texan folk singer who did a bunch on Texas history. Most relevant to THR is his song "Come and Take It", about the battle of Gonzales where Texians first stood up to the Mexican army. On one of his live CDs he goes into the connection between Leonides and Molon Labe to the Texians.

On that crisp October morning in 1835
They unfurled their Texas banner to the wind
And the message there was simple
Star and cannon crudely drawn
If you want it, come and take it, little friend

We prayed and worked as free men since 1824
We can live in peace as brothers in the sun
But we can't accept this edict of unarmed slavery
So I think that we'll just keep this little 'gun'

It was old and obsolete when it first got here from Spain
And that was near a hundred years ago
Sent to awe the Indians, then spiked and left behind
When the seeds of Christian teachings would not grow

They sawed wheels from an oak tree and strapped her to a board
On the second try they drilled a touchole true
When the soldiers came to take it, they wheeled her out and fired
And they ran like scalded rabbits from that cannon and its crew

So like Lexington and Concord, sixty years ago
A noble free Republic had its birth
A new breed of folks came forth
They were Texian by name
As gunfire shook the rich Gonzales turf

Then the soldiers fled to San Antone to report to General Cos
Who placed that "take it" order on the shelf
If Santa Anna really wants this little gun
He can ride on up this way
And he can come and take it by himself

And the flag read "Come and Take It" with a cannon and a star
They never thought its fame would spread this far
That little cannon wasn't much, although we shoot it every year
But they had flown the first lone Texas star

It's almost as many years as those who fought at Alamo
But the flame still burns in Texas just as bright
If you want to come and take it, you had better pack your lunch
'Cause you sure as hell are headed for a fight

And the flag read "Come and Take It" with a cannon and a star
They never thought its fame would spread this far
That little cannon wasn't much, although we shoot it every year
But they had flown the first lone Texas star

 

[45crittergitter]

Geez, he didn't say post the whole entire song lyrics! lol

[Jalexander]

Well, y'all have already most of my favorites, but I'm surprised no one has mentioned James McMurty. The two of his that immediately leap to mind are 'Choctaw Bingo' and 'Lights of Cheyenne'. The relevant lyrics are below.

'Choctaw Bingo'
Bob and Mae come up from little town
Way down by lake Texoma where he coaches football
They were two A champions now for two years running
But he says they won't be this year no they won't be this year
And he stopped off in Tushka at that "Pop's Knife and Gun" place
Bought a SKS rifle and a couple a full cases of that steel core ammo
With the berdan primers from some East bloc nation that no longer needs 'em
And a Desert Eagle that's one great big ol' pistol
I mean .50 caliber made by bada** Hebrews
And some surplus tracers for that old BAR of Slayton's
Soon as it gets dark we're gonna have us a time
We're gonna have us a time

'Lights of Cheyenne'
Now there's antelope grazing
in range of my gun
Come opening weekend
you won't see a one
They'll vanish like ghosts
`cause somehow they know
But now they're up to the
fence in the early dawn

James

 

[WyoJack]

Can't believe no one has heard of "Don't forget the guns" by Cheryl Weaver.
It was originally an anti gun song but it sure sounds gunny to me.

[moby clarke]

You guys are all wrong. The greatest gun song is with out a doubt Weird Al's TRIGGER HAPPY!

Trigger Happy
by Al Yankovic

Lyrics:

Got an AK-47, well you know it makes me feel alright
Got an Uzi by my pillow, helps me sleep a little better at night
There's no feeling any greater
Than to shoot first and ask questions later
Now I'm trigger happy, trigger happy every day

Well, you can't take my guns away, I got a constitutional right
Yeah, I gotta be ready if the Commies attack us tonight
I'll blow their brains out with my Smith and Wesson
That ought to teach them all a darn good lesson
Now I'm trigger happy, trigger happy every day

(Oh yeah, I'm)trigger, trigger happy
Yes I'm trigger, trigger happy
(Oh baby, I'm)trigger, trigger happy
Yes I'm trigger, trigger happy
(Oh I'm so)trigger, trigger happy
Yes I'm trigger, trigger happy
Better watch out, punk, or I'm gonna have to blow you away

Oh, I accidently shot daddy last night in the den
I mistook him in the dark for a drug-crazed Nazi again
Now why'd you have to get so mad?
It was just a lousy flesh wound, Dad
You know, I'm trigger happy, trigger happy every day

Oh, I still haven't figured out the safety on my rifle yet
Little Fluffy took a round, better take him to the vet
I filled that kitty cat so full of lead
We'll have to use him for a pencil instead
Well, I'm so trigger happy, trigger happy every day

(Oh yeah, I'm)trigger, trigger happy
Yes I'm trigger, trigger happy
(Oh baby, I'm)trigger, trigger happy
Yes I'm trigger, trigger happy
(Oh I'm so)trigger, trigger happy
Yes I'm trigger, trigger happy
Better watch out, punk, or I'm gonna have to blow you away

Come on and grab your ammo
What have you got to lose?
We'll all get liquored up
And shoot at anything that moves

Got a brand new semi-automatic weapon with a laser sight
Oh, I'm prayin' somebody tries to break in here tonight
I always keep a Magnum in my trunk
You better ask yourself, do you feel lucky, punk?
Because I'm trigger happy, trigger happy every day

(Oh yeah, I'm)trigger, trigger happy
Yes I'm trigger, trigger happy
(Oh baby, I'm)trigger, trigger happy
Yes I'm trigger, trigger happy
(Oh I'm so)trigger, trigger happy
Yes I'm trigger, trigger happy
Better watch out, punk, or I'm gonna have to blow you away

Whiskey in the jar(Metallica version/Favorite Metallica song of all)


As I was goin' over the Cork and Kerry mountains
I saw Captain Farrell and his money he was countin'
I first produced my Pistol and then produced my rapier
I said stand and deliver or the devil he may take ya

I took all of his money and it was a pretty penny
I took all of his money yeah I brought it home to Molly
She swore that she'd love me, never would she leave me
But the devil take that woman for you know she treat me easy

Musha ring dum a doo dum a da
Whack for my daddy-o
Whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar-o

Being drunk and weary I went to Molly's chamber
Takin' my money with me and I never knew the danger
For about six or maybe seven in walked Captain Farrell
I jumped up, fired off my Pistols and I shot him with both barrels

Musha ring dum a doo dum a da
Whack for my daddy-o
Whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar-o

Now some men like the fishin' and some men like the fowlin'
And some men like ta hear, ta hear cannon ball a roarin'
Me I like sleepin' specially in my Molly's chamber
But here I am in prison, here I am with a ball and chain yeah

Musha ring dum a doo dum a da
Whack for my daddy-o
Whack for my daddy-o
There's whiskey in the jar-o

Whiskey in the jar-o
Musha ring dum a doo dum a da

Metallica/Shoot me again(Just so you know Metallica is my favorite band)

I won’t go away
Right here I’ll stay

Stand silent in flames
Stand tall ‘till it fades

Shoot me again
I ain’t done yet

Shoot me again

All the shots I take
I spit back t you
All the ???? you fake
Comes back to haunt you

All the shots

All the shots I take
What difference did I make?
All the shots I take
I spit back at you

I won’t go away, with a bullet in my back
Right here I’ll stay, with a bullet in my back

Shoot me
Take a shot

I’ll stand on my own, with a bullet in my back
I’m stranded and sold , with a bullet in my back

I bite my tongue
Trying not to shoot back
No compromise
My heart won’t pump the other way

Wake the sleeping giant
Wake the beast
Wake the sleeping dog
No, let him sleep

Metallica - Kill em all

No Remorse

No mercy for what we are doing
No thought to even what we have done
We don't need to feel the sorrow
No remorse for the helpless one

War without end
No remorse No repent
We don't care what it meant
Another day Another death
Another sorrow Another breath
No remorse No repent
We don't care what it meant
Another day Another death
Another sorrow Another breath

Blood feeds the war machine
as it eats its way across the land
We don't need the feel the sorrow
No remorse is the one command

War without end
No remorse No repent
We don't care what it meant
Another day Another death
Another sorrow Another breath
No remorse No repent
We don't care what it meant
Another day Another death
Another sorrow Another breath

Only the strong survive
No one to save the weaker race
We are ready to kill all comers
Like a loaded gun right at your face

War without end
No remorse No repent
We don't care what it meant
Another day Another death
Another sorrow Another breath
No remorse No repent
We don't care what it meant
Another day Another death
Another sorrow Another breath

Attack
Bullets are flying
People are dying
with madness surrounding all hell's breaking loose
Soldiers are hounding
Bodies are mounting
cannons are shouting to take their abuse
With war machines going
Blood starts to flowing
No mercy given to anyone hear
The furious fighting
Swords are like lighting
It all becomes frightening to you
Know death is near
No remorse

Sorry for the long post I thought my first post should be long to make up for the fact I dont talk alot

Garrett Morris on SNL

I'm gonna get me a shotgun and kill every whitey I see,
I'm gonna get me a shotgun and kill every whitey I see.
If I kill every whitey I see...Then whitey, he won't bother me,
I'm gonna get me a shotgun and kill every whitey I see.

1st or 2nd season and still one of the funniest bits they, and particularly he, ever did.
