We Both Reached For The Gun

Mr. Billy Flynn in the press conference rag

Notice his mouth never moves, almostWhere'd you come from?

Mississippi

And your parents?

Very wealthy

Where are they now?

Six feet underBut she was granted one more start

The convent of The Sacred HeartWhen'd you get here?

1920

How old were you?

Don't remember

Then what happened?

I met Amos and he stole my heart away

Convinced me to elope one dayOh you poor dear ! I can't believe what you've been through !A convent girl! A run-away marriage!Who's Fred Casely?

My ex-boyfriend

Why'd you shoot him?

I was leavin'

Was he angry?

Like a madman

Still I said, "Fred, move along"She knew that she was doin' wrongThen describe it

He came toward me

With a pistol?

From my bureau

Did you fight him?

Like a tigerHe had strength and she had noneAnd yet we both reached for the gun

Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes, we both, oh yes we both

Oh yes, we both reached for the gun

The gun, the gun, the gun

Oh yes, we both reached for the gun, for the gunOh yes, oh yes, oh yes, they both, oh yes, they both

Oh yes, they both reached for the gun

The gun, the gun, the gun

Oh yes, they both reached for the gun, for the gunUnderstandable, understandable

Yes, it's perfectly understandable

Comprehensible, comprehensible

Not a bit reprehensible, it's so defensibleHow're you feeling?

Very frightened

Are you sorry?

Are you kidding?

What's you're statement?

All I'd say is, though my choo-choo jumped the track

I'd give my life to bring him backAnd?

Stay away from

What?

Jazz and liquor

And?

And the men who

What?

Play for funAnd what?

That's the thought that

Yeah

Came upon me

When?

When we both reached for the gunUnderstandable, understandable

Yes, it's perfectly understandable

Comprehensible, comprehensible

Not a bit reprehensible, it's so defensibleOh yes, oh yes, oh yes, they both, oh yes, they both

(Let me hear it!)

Oh yes, they both reached for the gun

The gun, the gun, the gun

Oh yes, they both reached for the gun, for the gun

(Little louder)Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes, they both, oh yes they both

Oh yes, they both reached for the gun

The gun, the gun, the gun

Oh yes, they both reached for the gun, for the gun

(Now you got it)Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes, they both, oh yes they both

Oh yes, they both reached for the gun

The gun, the gun, the gun

Oh yes, they both reached for the gun, for the gunOh yes, oh yes, oh yes, they both

Oh yes, they both, oh yes, they both reached for the gun

The gun, the gun, the gun

The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun

The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun

The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun(Both reached for the gun)

The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun

The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun

The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun

The gun, the gun, the gun, the gun

Both reached for the gun
