My neighbor´s car got stolen last night
Right out of his driveway
We heard the dogs barking
We never paid them any mind
And Mary say´s she´s going to lock the door
From now on when we go away
I´ve been walking around this farm
Wondering if it´s time

Time to get a gun
That´s what I´ve been thinking
I could afford one
If I did just a little less drinking
Time to put something
Between me and the sun
When the talking is over
It´s time to get a gun

Last week a government man was there
When I walked out my back door
He said I´m sorry to bother you ma´am
It don´t matter anymore
Cause even while we were talking
Right here where we stand
They´re making plans for a four way highway
And a big old over pass

Time to get a gun
That´s what I´ve been thinking
I could afford one
If I did just a little less drinking
Time to put something
Between me and the sun
When the talking is over
It´s time to get a gun

Mary says she´s worried about herself and her kids
She´s never known anybody who had a gun
And her daddy never did
But I think it should be up to me
Cause when it´s all said and done
Somebody´s gotta walk into the night
And I´m going to be that one

Time to get a gun
That´s what I´ve been thinking
I could afford one
If I did just a little less drinking
Time to put something
Between me and the sun
When the talking is over
It´s time to get a gun

When the party is over
It´s time to get a gun
