Under The Gun Lyrics - Live In New York - Blondie

I still can picture him, his hands in his back pockets 

He wasn't much for words, but when the wise kids made a racket 

He'd just have to go downtown 

Throw his weight around before starting over 

"Say did you hear, I've got a band? 

Some guys I know from L.A. 

We'll own the Rio Grande 

I'll pay you back next Friday 

You know, it sure ain't big 

Just some cats I dig 

They said they'd do the gig" 

Oh, Desperado, why don't you spend your life in Colorado? 

Oh, Restless Shadow, out in the blue hills, you're feeling hollow

Oh, El Diablo, why did you spend your life in California? 

I should have warned ya 

No place to go now, but falling over 

Some hands can't make it on the run, under the gun 

Not for the younger 

Oh, Jack Daniels, I feel your hunger 

I know you did your best, but you thought that you did not 

I wish that I had known before I heard the last shot 

You know, it's not a sin, that little badge of tin 

Just a momento 

So sad you loved in vain 

My comrades lost in battle 

The music wars are done from London to Seattlcce 

We all pay to play and all our yesterdays are starting over 

Oh, Desperado, why don't you spend your life in Colorado? 

Oh, Restless Shadow, out in the blue hills, you're feeling hollow

Oh, El Diablo, why did you spend your life in California? 

I should have warned ya 

No place to go now, but falling over 

Ready to die 

Now, he's ready to die
