Guitar or a Gun

Letra de Guitar or a Gun

A cool September morning, waitin' on the pawn shop to let me in 200 dollars worth of summer yard mowin' that I just had to spend I had my eye on two things, but I could only pick just one A young man's first decision, is it a guitar or a gun?I can still hear daddy's voice say, "Now, think about it, son One of these will last forever, and the other's just for fun One can feed your family, and one will end you up in jail" And he seemed to know which one was which, but me, I couldn't tellI could learn to shoot like Jesse James, out there on the run Or play guitar and be a Rolling Stone, well, that just sounds like fun A rockstar or an outlaw, well, either way I've won When I walk out this door with a guitar or a gunI've thought about it long and hard, as I held 'em in my hand Standin' at the crossroads, still deciding who I am They're both just wood and metal, six bullets or six strings? Whichever choice I make, I'll leave here feeling like a kingWhen I learn to shoot like Jesse James, out there on the run Or play guitar and be a Rolling Stone, well, that just sounds like fun A rockstar or an outlaw, well, either way I've won When I walk out this door with a guitar or a gunA cool September morning, waitin' on the pawn shop to let me in 200 dollars worth of summer yard mowin' that I just had to spendShould I learn to shoot like Jesse James, out there on the run Or play guitar and be a Rolling Stone, well, that just sounds like fun A rockstar or an outlaw, well, either way I've won When I walk out this door with a guitar or a gun When I walk out this door with a guitar or a gun (With a guitar or a gun)
