Lyrics Shotgun - Randy Rogers Band

Shotgun

Once I was a gamblin' man
I kept my pistol by my hand
Got my work done by the light of the moon
Evil deeds made up my mind
I traded peace for troubled times
Wickedness and whiskey were my fuel
Oh but now I keep locked away
I might’ve hung up my shotgun
But I didn’t put it up so high
That I can’t reach up and get it back down, if you give me a reason why
Still got a few shells itchin' to see the light of day
Couple rounds of buck shot go a long, long way
Once I had a good run
But I hung up my shotgun
No one lives that life too long
Just in time somebody came along
With her help, I just might save myself
Sometimes I wake up at night
Dreams of fire burnin' bright
Pray that I don’t ever lose control
And so now I keep locked away
I might’ve hung up my shotgun
But I didn’t put it up so high
That I can’t reach up and get it back down, if you give me a reason why
Still got a few shells itchin' to see the light of day
Couple rounds of buck shot go a long, long way
Once I had a good run
But I hung up my shotgun
I might’ve hung up my shotgun
But I didn’t put it up so high
That I can’t reach up and get it back down, if you give me a reason why
Still got a few shells itchin' to see the light of day
Couple rounds of buck shot go a long, long way
Once I had a good run
But I hung up my shotgun
Yeah I hung up my shotgun
