~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
Writer : H. LOGAN, L. PRICE

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

I'd like to thank the academy for this high honor. OTOH, when I told Irving that he'd only won a silver, he called you an anti-semite! ;-)

“Devil’s Right Hand” by Steve Earle.
Not guilty I said, you got the wrong man,
Nothin’ touched the trigger but the devil’s right hand.

WITH A GUN - STEELY DAN (Pretzel Logic)
I could be wrong but I have seen your face before
You were the man that I saw running from his door
You owed him money but you gave him something more
With a gun
With a gun
You will be what you are just the same
Did you pay the other man with the piece in your hand
And leave him lying in the rain?
You were the founders of the clinic on the hill
Until he caught you with your fingers in the till
He slapped your hand so you settled up your bill
With a gun
With a gun
You will be what you are just the same
Did you pay the other man with the piece in your hand
And leave him lying in the rain?
When you’re born to play the fool
And you’ve seen all the western movies
Woe to the one who does you wrong
You hide in the bushes
Murder the man
With Luger in hand
I understood that you will soon be leavin’ town
Don’t try to call me when they finally run you down
Just give fair warning any time you come around
With a gun
With a gun
You will be what you are just the same
Did you pay the other man with the piece in your hand
And leave him lying in the rain?

Steve is a barkin’ moonbat, but he is one of the great songwriters and performers of our generations. They’ll be listening to “Copperhead Road” when we colonize the Andromeda Galaxy.

Gimme Three Steps and El Paso would be my picks too.
Funny how guns and “watering holes” often seem to go together in songs.

Quite. I’ve heard them called other names as well...lol! Way lefty, but who cared back then? Now I listen to songs like theirs and wonder if they still believe that tripe?
