LYRICS

Daddy's gunna buy me a .45,
Said it's gunna ease my mind,
Said just load her up when you just can't run,
First few rounds are me son,

But I said no, no, no,
Ain't gunner bring me down,
I rise up, up, up,
but keep that gun around,

Whiskey always said it's gunna treat me right,
So I turned that bottle upside down,
Woke up in morning having lost my night,
All that whiskey did was turn me around,

But I said no, no, no,
Ain't gunner bring me down,
I rise up, up, up,
but keep that gun around,

With the gun powder leaking,
Down my neck,
And a door to my thoughts open,
And my heart beats the life right out of my head,
The thought of this keeps me going,
There's always a way if I want it

But I said no, no, no,
Ain't gunner bring me down,
I rise up, up, up,
but keep that gun around

Puttin' Me On
by Scott Erdy

Erdy's tunes are ones to sit down and dive into. They say a picture says a thousand words. I'd say Erdy's words paint a thousand pictures. Close your eyes, listen up, and enjoy. MAKE NO BONES
