~Favorite GUN Song~
Lloy Price - Stagger Lee The night was clear and the moon was yellow And the leaves came tumbling down
I was standing on the corner when I heard my bulldog bark
He was barkin' at the two men who were gamblin' in the dark It was Stagger Lee and Billy, two men who gambled late Stagger Lee threw seven, Billy swore that he threw eight
Stagger Lee told Billy, "I can't let you go with that" "You have won all my money and my brand new stetson hat" Stagger Lee started off goin' down that railroad track He said "I can't get you Billy but don't be here when I come back"
Stagger Lee went home and he got his forty-four
Said "I'm goin' to the barroom just to pay that debt I owe" Stagger Lee went to the barroom and he stood across the barroom door He said "Nobody move" and he pulled his forty-four
Stagger Lee shot Billy, oh he shot that poor boy so bad Till the bullet came through Billy and it broke the bartender's glass

Gene Pitney - (The Man Who Shot) Liiberty Valance >
When Liberty Valance rode to town the womenfolk would hide, they'd hide When Liberty Valance walked around the men would step aside 'cause the point of a gun was the only law that Liberty understood When it came to shootin' straight and fast---he was mighty good.
>From out of the East a stranger came, a law book in his hand, a man The kind of a man the West would need to tame a troubled land 'cause the point of a gun was the only law that Liberty understood When it came to shootin' straight and fast---he was mighty good.
Many a man would face his gun and many a man would fall The man who shot Liberty Valance, he shot Liberty Valance He was the bravest of them all.
The love of a girl can make a man stay on when he should go, stay on Just tryin' to build a peaceful life where love is free to grow But the point of a gun was the only law that Liberty understood When the final showdown came at last, a law book was no good.
Alone and afraid she prayed that he'd return that fateful night, aww that night When nothin' she said could keep her man from goin' out to fight >From the moment a girl gets to be full-grown the very first thing she learns When two men go out to face each other only one retur-r-r-ns
Everyone heard two shots ring out, a shot made Liberty fall The man who shot Liberty Valance, he shot Liberty Valance He was the bravest of them all.
The man who shot Liberty Valance, he shot Liberty Valance He was the bravest of them all.

High Noon,
Lyrics to High Noon : Do not forsake me, oh my darling On this our wedding day Do not forsake me, oh my darling Wait, wait along I do not know what fate awaits me I only know I must be brave
For I must face a man who hates me Or die a coward, a craven coward Or die a coward in my grave
Oh, to be torn twixt love and duty Supposin' I love my fair haired beauty Look at that big hand movin' round Nearin' high noon He made a vow while in state prison
Said it would be my life or hisn' I'm not afraid to die but oh What will I do if you leave me?
Do not forsake me, oh my darling You make that promise as a bride Do not forsake me, oh my darling Although you're grievin', don't think of leavin' Not while I need you by my side
Wait along, wait along Wait along, wait along

Garet Trooper
by SSgt. Barry Sadler
This is dedicated to the parade field trooper
Who never leaves that nice soft garrison
And always looks real pretty
Now in the war torn jungles of Vietnam
Youll find a certain kind of man
Youll see him everywhere
Hes a trooper, a garet trooper
Yeah, hes five foot four, 228 pounds of blubber
Got him a nickel plated 45 tied down low, quick draw holster
Two bandoliers of brasso-ed ammo
Yeah hes a trooper, a garet trooper
Hes fought from Saigon to Ninh Thuan
In every bar that is, and then only with the girls
And he aint won one yet
But hes a trooper, a garet trooper (garet trooper)
Hes got a hip knife, a side knife, a boot knife, a shoulder knife
And a little bitty one thats a combination flare gun, dinner set,
and genuine police whistle
But hes a trooper, a garet trooper
Now I run into one the other day, He told me a story,
He said he’d just this minute come back from
a fifteen day runnin fight with the Cong
Said he captured a lot of loot
You know what I saw when I looked down? A spit shined boot
Yeah, hes a trooper, a garet trooper (garet trooper)
Now poor ole pilot come back today
Half his crew was killed, aircraft shot to hell
But he dont say much
Hes not a trooper, a garet trooper
And out in the hills and the jungles and the swamps
Living like a bunch of dogs
Are some men wearing funny little green hats
They stay out there and fight for months on end
They dont say much cause theyre not troopers,
garet troopers (garet troopers)
And I bet finally, when I leave this war torn land
The last thing Ill see will be,
though I may be in a drunken stupor
I bet itll be a garet trooper (garet trooper)
Yeah, theyre all over the place
Aint hardly worth going to war no more

Just after “I Fought The Law” became a top ten hit, Bobby Fuller was found dead in his automobile, which was parked outside his Hollywood apartment. The police considered the death an apparent suicide/accident, however, some people believe Fuller was murdered.[5] The investigation was botched from the start. The crime scene was not secured and no fingerprints were obtained. A witness also claimed seeing a police officer throw a can of gasoline found at the scene into the trash. Fuller was found with multiple wounds all over his body and covered in gasoline, leading many to speculate that the perpetrators fled before they could set the car on fire.[6] Police later changed the cause of death to “accidental asphyxiation” citing no evidence of foul play.[7] Despite the official cause of death stated by authorities, rumors and speculation still surround Fuller’s mysterious death.[8][9] Fuller is buried in the Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Los Angeles.
The relatives of Sam Cooke have noted similarities in the mysterious nature of his death with those surrounding the death of Bobby Fuller.
