Letras de You Can't Get a Man With a Gun

Oh my mother was frightened by a shotgun they say
That′s why I'm such a wonderful shot
I′d be out in the cactus and I'd practice all day
And now tell me what have I got
I'm quick on the trigger with targets not much bigger than a pinpoint
I′m number one
But my score with a feller is lower than a cellar
Oh you can′t get a man with a gun
When I'm with a pistol I sparkle like a crystal
Yes I blaze like the morning sun
But I lose all my luster when with a bronco buster
Oh you can′t get a man with a gun
With a gun, with a gun
Oh you can't get a man with a gun
If I went to battle with someone′s herd of cattle
You'd have steak when the job was done
But if I shot the herder they′d lock me up for murder
Oh you can't shoot a male in the tail like a quail
Oh you can't get a man with a gun
If I shot a rabbit some furrier would grab it
For a coat that would warm someone
But you can′t shoot a lover and use him for a cover
Oh you can′t get a man with a gun
The gals with umbrellas are always out with fellers
In the rain or the blazin' sun
But a man never trifles with gals who carry rifles
Oh you can′t get a man with a gun
With a gun, with a gun
Oh you can't get a man with a gun
A Tom, Dick or Harry would build a house for Carrie
When the preacher has made them one
But he can′t build you houses with buckshot in his trousers
For a man may be hot but he's not when he′s shot
Oh you can't get a man with a gun
