Weight Of The Gun Lyrics - Things That Can't Be Undone - Corb Lund

Sometimes Momma it can feel real heavy 

When I think of the wrong I have done 

I don't know how I can carry this burden 

All I feel is the weight of the gun 

The weight of the gun 

And the wrong I have done 

I know this wasn't what you planned for me 

Mothers have hopes for their sons 

Along with the shame I have brought to the family 

All I feel is the weight of the gun 

The weight of the gun 

And the wrong I have done 

My hands are empty but my mind is filled 

With things that cannot be undone 

How many years since I've lifted a pistol? 

But I still feel the weight of the gun 

The weight of the gun 

Things that can't be undone 

The weight of the gun 

And the wrong I have done 

Well brass is heavy, steel is heavy, 

Lead even heavier still 

Heaviest of all is the weight on your soul 

From the blood of the man you've killed 

A concrete cell is especially tough 

On a boy used to Montana sun 

And the news that you're gone that the warden delivered 

Makes me long for the weight of the gun 

The weight of the gun 

The Montana sun 

The weight of the gun 

And the wrong I have done 

Well brass is heavy, steel is heavy, 

Lead even heavier still 

Heaviest of all is the weight on your soul 

From the blood of the man you've killed
