Well, I've seen troubles, nearly all my days
what I saw last night won't never go away
I saw my baby with another man
so I feel like going out with a gun in my hand, oh
what do you do?
when you've lost all control
all you've got is the blues to
express your soul
Get a gun and your closest friend
start robbing banks until you've hit number ten
And when your troubles have, caught up after a while
go out shooting, kid, like you're right in style, alright
Well, I was drifting, from town to town
caught sight of that woman and I hit the ground, well
I'm tired of running, time to make my stand
Guess we'll have to see if I'm any kind of man, well
What do you do?
when you've lost all control
All you've got is the blues
to express your soul
what do you do?
well I'll tell ya, I'll tell ya
Get a gun and your closest friend
Start robbing banks until you've hit number ten
And when your troubles have, caught up after a while
go out shooting, kid, like you're right in style, alright
huh
Awh, what are you gonna do now?
Do you hear that sound?
They're coming to getcha,
knocking down your door
they're coming to getcha.
