John the Gun (Live / BBC Sounds Of The 70's, London / 1970)
'My shadow follows me Wherever I should chance to go', John The Gun did say. 'If you should chance to meet me As I wander to and fro, Sad would be your day. My life is mine and the light did shine Till the guns they did go through me, So now I shall never fall. Ideals of peace are gold which fools have found Upon the plains of war. I shall destroy them all.' Put away your guns of steel, Death comes too soon for all. Your Master He may need you soon, Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com And you must heed His call. 'I am the master of the games That you will hardly ever play, So I will teach your sons. And if they should die Before the evening of their span of days, Why, then they will die young.' 'Condemn me not, For always will I play the game of war, In moonshine or in sun. And if any cross the path I choose to tread, Their chances they are poor. My name is John The Gun.'
