~Favorite Weapon's Song's ~





Dean Martin & Ricky Nelson-My rifle,pony and me

The sun is sinking in the west
The cattle go down to the stream
The redwing settles in the nest
It's time for a cowboy to dream

Purple light in the canyons
That's where I long to be
With my three good companions
Just my rifle, pony and me

Gonna hang (gonna hang) my sombrero (my sombrero)
On the limb (on the limb) of a tree (of a tree)
Coming home (coming home) sweetheart darling (sweetheart darling)
Just my rifle, pony and me
Just my rifle, my pony and me

(Whippoorwill in the willow
Sings a sweet melody
Riding to Amarillo)
Just my rifle, pony and me
No more cows (no more cows) to be roping (to be roping)
No more strays will I see
Round the bend (round the bend) she'll be waiting (she'll be waiting)
For my rifle, pony and me
For my rifle, my pony and me

Mack the Knife-Bobby Darin

Oh, the shark, babe, has such teeth, dear And it shows them pearly white Just a jackknife has old MacHeath, babe And he keeps it, ah, out of sight Ya know when that shark bites with his teeth, babe Scarlet billows start to spread Fancy gloves, oh, wears old MacHeath, babe So there's never, never a trace of red

Now on the sidewalk, huh, huh, whoo sunny morning, un huh Lies a body just oozin' life, eek And someone's sneakin' 'round the corner Could that someone be Mack the Knife?

There's a tugboat, huh, huh, down by the river dontcha know Where a cement bag's just a'drooppin' on down Oh, that cement is just, it's there for the weight, dear Five'll get ya ten old Macky's back in town Now d'ja hear 'bout Louie Miller? He disappeared, babe After drawin' out all his hard-earned cash And now MacHeath spends just like a sailor Could it be our boy's done somethin' rash?

Now Jenny Diver, ho, ho, yeah, Sukey Tawdry Ooh, Miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown Oh, the line forms on the right, babe Now that Macky's back in town

I said Jenny Diver, whoa, Sukey Tawdry Look out to Miss Lotte Lenya and old Lucy Brown Yes, that line forms on the right, babe Now that Macky's back in town.....

Look out, old Macky's back!!

The Star Spangled Banner

Oh say can you see, by the dawn's early light, What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming? And the rocket's red glare, the bombs bursting in air gave proof through the night that the Flag was still there...

[tacticalogic]

We fired our cannon ‘til the barrel melted down
So we grabbed an alligator and we fought another round
We filled his head with cannon balls, and powdered his behind
And when we touched the powder off the gator lost his mind

We fired our guns and the British kept a-comin’
There wasn’t nigh as many as there was a while ago
We fired once more and they begin to runnin’
On down the Mississippi to the Gulf of Mexico

[Binstence]

Without question the best weapon song has to be “Delilah” by Tom Jones and maybe “Mack the Knife” by Bobby Darin but I am going to say this time that the Kossoy Sister’s version of Maybell Carter’s “On the Banks of the Ohio” packs the greatest punch. I was shocked the first time I heard it, thinking, “Did I really just hear that?” Spooky. Amazing country harmony on their recording.

Banks Of The Ohio (Lyrics from the Johnny Cash version)
Songwriters: Maybelle Carter

I asked my love to take a walk
Take a walk just a little ways
And as we walked, along we talk
All would be our wedding day

And only say that you’ll be mine
In no others arms entwined
Down beside where the waters flow
Down by the banks of the Ohio

I asked her if she’d marry me
And my wife forever be
She only turned her head away
And had no other words to say

And only say that you’ll be mine
In no others arms entwined
Down beside where the waters flow
Down by the banks of the Ohio

I plunged a knife into her breast
And told her she was going to rest

She cried “Oh Willy, don’t murder me
I’m not prepared for eternity”

I took her by her golden curls
And drug her down to the river side
And there I threw her into drown
And I watched her as she floated down

And only say that you’ll be mine
In no others arms entwined
Down beside where the waters flow
Down by the banks of the Ohio

And going home between twelve and one
I cried “Oh Lord, what have I’ve done?”
I’ve killed the only girl I love
Because she would not marry me

And only say that you’ll be mine
In no others arms entwined
Down beside where the waters flow
Down by the banks of the Ohio

I will see your boy named Sue and raise you one:

Folsom Prison Blues

When I was just a baby my mama told me. Son,
Always be a good boy, don't ever play with guns.
But I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die
When I hear that whistle blowing, I hang my head and cry..

32-20 Blues

My all time favorite by Robert Johnson

Not just his version, but some great covers by:

Chain (my favorite cover); Peter Green; The Flamin’ Groovies; John Hammond

‘F I send for my baby, and she don’t come
‘F I send for my baby, man, and she don’t come
All the doctors in Hot Springs1 sure can’t help her none

And if she gets unruly, thinks she don’t wan’ do
And if she gets unruly and thinks she don’t wan’ do
Take my 32-20, now, and cut her half in two

She got a .38 special but I believe it’s most too light
She got a .38 special but I believe it’s most too light
I got a 32-20, got to make the caps2 alright

If I send for my baby, man, and she don’t come
If I send for my baby, man, and she don’t come
All the doctors in Hot Springs sure can’t help her none

I’m gonna shoot my pistol, gonna shoot my gatling gun3
I’m gonna shoot my pistol, gotta shoot my gatling gun
You made me love you, now your man have come

Ahoh, baby, where you stayed last night
Ahah, baby, where you stayed last night
You got your hair all tangled and you ain’t talking right

Her .38 special, boys, it do very well
Her .38 special, boys, it do very well
I got a 32-20 now, and it’s a burning

If I send for my baby, man, and she don’t come
If I send for my baby, man, and she don’t come
All the doctors in Wisconsin4 sure can’t help her none

Hey, hey, baby, where you stayed last night
Hey, hey, baby, where you stayed last night
You didn’t come home until the sun was shining bright

Ahoh boy, I just can’t take my rest
Ahoh boy, I just can’t take my rest
With this 32-20 laying up and down my breast
