Time to Get a Gun

Time to Get a Gun - Miranda Lambert

My neighbor's car got stole last night right out of his driveway

We heard the dog 's barking we never paid them any mind

And Mary says she's gonna lock the door from now on when we go away

I've been walking around this farm wondering if it's time

Time to get a gun that's what I been thinkin'

I could afford one if I did just a little less drinkin'

Time to put something between me and the sun

When the talking is over it's time to get a gun

Last week a government man was there when I walked out of my back door

He said "I'm sorry to bother you ma'am" it don't matter anymore

'Cause even while we're talking right here where we stand

They're making plans for a four-lane highway and a big ole overpass

It's time to get a gun that's what I been thinkin'

I could afford one if I did just a little less drinkin'

Time to put something between me and the sun

When the talking is over it's time to get a gun

Mary says she's worried about herself and her kids

She's never known anybody had a gun and her daddy never did

Well I think it should be up to me 'cause when it's all said and done

Somebody's gotta walk into the night and I'm gonna be that one

Time to get a gun that's what I been thinkin'

I could afford one if I did just a little less drinkin'

Time to put something between me and the sun

When the talking is over it's time to get a gun

When the party is over it's time to get a gun
