Under The Gun Lyrics

See the man ridin' high in the desert near the Rio Grande
He runs for his life, doesn't sleep, doesn't take time to understand
Because the girl that he loved went away and ran off with another man
But he followed them both and he shot at the throat, couldn't stop his hand
So now he's under the gunHe was born and raised then lived like the son of an honest man
And who would've thought that one day he might gun down another man
But his heart gave away to the gun in his hand, couldn't stop it, no
So now he's gotta run and he is weak from the sun, got nowhere to go
Because he's under the gunJust a fugitive out on the run
Under the gun
Never see the setting sun
He's under the gunShoot outWell now he's on the run because he's under the gun with nowhere to go
Well now pray for him, sister
Watch out for him, Mister
He'll let you know because he's under the gunJust a fugitive out on the run
Under the gun
Never see the setting sun
He's under the gunBecause he's under the gun

Because he's under the gun
Because he's under the gun
Because he's under the gun
Because he's under the gun
