(We could get somebody else, but we want someone like you)
00:12
00:16
(We could get somebody else, but we want someone like you)
00:25
Well, as soon as I get my gun
00:27
I'll point it out the window, at the setting sun
00:29
As soon as I get my gun
00:32
I'll tell you all about it when you fall in love
00:35
As soon as I get my gun
00:38
I'm gonna make a call
00:41
Well, as soon as I get my gun
00:43
Get my gun
00:46
Well, the uniform isn't sewn
00:50
They make 'em like we give 'em out to anyone
00:53
As soon as we get your gun
00:56
A heckle for a pistol is a lot of fun
00:59
It's just the kind of place we run
01:02
Because the government
01:04
Because the government wants your gun
01:06
Wants your gun, woah
01:10
Well, if I'm old enough to die for your mistakes
01:13
Then let's go
01:18
Can I bleed enough to fill up what the engine takes?
01:20
We don't know
01:24
But if you're watching up above
01:25
They're teaching me to kill
01:28
Who's teaching me to love?
01:30
Now, baby, isn't it crazy?
01:31
Well, as soon as I get my gun
01:37
They'll put me on vacation, underneath the sun
01:40
As soon as I get my gun
01:43
I'll holler and flash it at my belting blood
01:46
Out on the sand
01:49
Like a hole from an I.E.D.
01:52
'Cause I'm holding up my gun
01:54
Holding up my gun, yeah
01:57
Well, if I'm old enough to die for your mistakes
02:01
Then let's go
02:05
Can I bleed enough to fill up what the engine takes?
02:07
We don't know
02:11
But if you're watching up above
02:12
They're teaching me to kill
02:16
Who's teaching me to love?
02:18
Now, baby, isn't it crazy?
02:19
As soon as I get my gun (Don't even have a gun!)
02:24
As soon as I get my gun (Don't even have a gun!)
02:28
As soon as I get my G-U-N (Don't even have a gun!)
02:31
I'm standing out in the S-U-N (Don't even have a gun!)
02:34
I'm never gonna have a son (Don't even have a gun!)
02:36
She's never gonna have a son (Don't even have a gun!)
02:39
I'm never gonna have a S-O-N
02:43
And now I'm never gonna have a S-O-N
02:45
Well, if I'm old enough to die for your mistakes
02:49
Then let's go
02:52
Can I bleed enough to fill up what the engine takes?
02:54
We don't know
02:59
But if you're watching up above
03:00
They're teaching me to kill
03:03
Who's teaching me to love?
03:05
Now, baby, isn't it crazy?
03:06
As soon as I get my gun (Don't even have a gun)
03:12
As soon as I get my gun (Don't even have a gun)
03:15
As soon as I get my gun (Don't even have a gun)
03:18
As soon as I get my gun (Don't even have a gun)
03:21
As soon as I get my gun (Don't even have a gun)
03:24
As soon as I get my gun (Don't even have a gun)
03:27
As soon as I get my gun (Don't even have a gun)
