Shoot a Man

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I try to love myself more than anyone else

I tried to love you too but you're too full of yourself

So sing me your love song, cowboy, that makes all the girls want you

'Cause I sleep with one eye open and a gun under my pillow too

So put your hands up, it's a stick up

Just keep your feelings to yourself and no one gets hurt

My mama told me he ain't a keeper

I ain't afraid to love a man but I ain't afraid to shoot one either

I ain't afraid to love a man but I ain't afraid to shoot one either

I ain't afraid to love a man but I ain't afraid to shoot one either

I ain't afraid to love a man but I ain't afraid to shoot one either

I'll be gone with the wind before you wake up

This town isn't big enough for the both of us

So sing me your love song, cowboy, that makes all the girls want you

'Cause I sleep with one eye open and a gun under my pillow too

So put your hands up, it's a stick up

Just keep your feelings to yourself and no one gets hurt

My mama told me he ain't a keeper

I ain't afraid to love a man but I ain't afraid to shoot one either

I ain't afraid to love a man but I ain't afraid to shoot one either

I ain't afraid to love a man but I ain't afraid to shoot one either

Keep going down this road

Men like you, they come and go

Got big guns, it's all for show

This ain't my first rodeo

Keep going down this road

Men like you, they come and go

Got big guns, it's all for show

This ain't my first rodeo

So sing me your love song, cowboy, that makes all the girls want you

'Cause I sleep with one eye open and a gun under my pillow too

So put your hands up, it's a stick up

Just keep your feelings to yourself and no one gets hurt

My mama told me he ain't a keeper

I ain't afraid to love a man but I ain't afraid to shoot one either

I ain't afraid to love a man but I ain't afraid to shoot one either (No, no; no, no)

I ain't afraid to love a man but I ain't afraid to shoot one either (No; no, no)

I ain't afraid to love a man but I ain't afraid to shoot one either

I ain't afraid to love a man but I ain't afraid to shoot one either
