No Guns (Live At The Piano)

Well in case you ever wondered

Why I do the things I do

My mother used to sing to me

On Ralph Avenue

And you know the days of sorrow

Yes we all gonna have a few

There was times alone at night I think

I wouldn't have made it through

But I don't sit around and count my losses

I don't worry about no bosses

I got no guns to stick by

I don't need to punish the lawless

Everyone's got to bear their crosses

I got no guns to stick by

Well, I tip my hat to the soldiers

In the sand and in the streets

I wish we didn't go to war

But I know we can't retreat

So don't tell me there's a reason

Or some justice you may claim

Just say this is a crazy world

That's driving you insane

I ain't joining no general's army

I'm not fighting for nobody's party

I got no guns to stick by

I ain't standing for nobody's anthem

Unless that song makes me feel like dancing

I got no guns to stick by

I don't sit around and count my losses

I don't worry about no bosses

I got no guns to stick by

I don't need to punish the lawless

Cause everybody in here got to bear their crosses

I got no guns to stick by

I ain't joining no general's army

I'm not fighting for nobody's party

I got no guns to stick by

I ain't standing for nobody's anthem

Unless that song makes me feel like dancing

I got no guns to stick by

I got no guns to stick by

I got no guns

I don't care what it is

I don't care what it is

All I know is me and myself

I got no guns to stick by

I got no guns to stick by
