Lyrics Lawman - Jefferson Starship

Lawman

Law man
Well, I’m afraid you just walked in here at the wrong time
You know my old man’s gun has never been fired
But there’s a first time and this could be
This could be the first time
Law man
Well, you know you look to be a lot younger than me and
I’d hate to shoot a baby
You’ve got a long way to go before you’re old and slow
And it could be
It could be a good time if you change your mind
Well, I’m tired and sweet from making love
And it’s just too late, you’ll have to wait
Bring your business around here in the morning
Well, I’ve heard your line
And you’ve heard mine
And I’m just too tired to take a side
Bring your business around here in the morning
Don’t you want to be easy?
Look there
Let some of the things you see go on by
Or you can burn them into your brain
Go on home
Can’t you see the children?
They’re just like you
They want everything to be fine but they let it slide
And the laughing lets you know that smiling breaks the rules
Law man
You know it could be me
And if you had your way we’d all be down
Under the face of a clock that’s just too old to be wound
And you can see now
The old hands won’t move around
One way or the other
Fool card, brother, this could be
This could be, the first time
The first time
