11) ME AND A GUN - Tori Amos
--------------------------------
No chords here, so I'll just post the lyrics.
[Verse]
5am
Friday morning
Thursday night
Far from sleep
I'm still up and driving
Can't go home
obviously
So I'll just change direction
Cause they'll soon konw where I live
And I wanna live
Got a full tank and some chips
It was me and a gun
And a man on my back
And I sang "holy holy" as he buttoned down his pants
You can laugh
It's kind of funny things you think
at times like these
Like I haven't seen Barbados
So I must get out of this
[Pre-chorus]
Yes I wore a slinky red thing
Does that mean I should spread
For you, your friends your father, Mr. Ed
[Chorus]
Me and a gun
and a man
On my back
But I haven't seen Barbados
So I must get out of this
[Verse]
Yes I wore a slinky red thing
Does that mean I should spread
For you, your friends your father, Mr. Ed
And I know what this means
Me and Jesus a few years back
Used to hang and he said
"It's your choice babe just remember
I don't think you'll be back in 3 days time
So you choose well"
Tell me what's right
Is it my right to be on my stomach
of Fred's Seville
[Chorus]
Me and a gun
and a man
On my back
But I haven't seen Barbados
So I must get out of this
[Verse]
And do you know Carolina
Where the biscuits are soft and sweet
These things go through you head
When there's a man on your back
And you're pushed flat on your stomach
It's not a classic cadillac
[Chorus]
Me and a gun
and a man
On my back
But I haven't seen Barbados
So I must get out of this
