My neighbor�s car got stolen last night
Right out of his driveway
We heard the dogs barking
We never paid them any mind
And Mary say�s she�s going to 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�ve been thinking
I could afford one
If I did just a little less drinking
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 my back door
He said I�m sorry to bother you ma�am
It don�t matter anymore
Cause even while we were talking
Right here where we stand
They�re making plans for a four way highway
And a big old over pass
Time to get a gun
That�s what I�ve been thinking
I could afford one
If I did just a little less drinking
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 who had a gun
And her daddy never did
But 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 going to be that one
Time to get a gun
That�s what I�ve been thinking
I could afford one
If I did just a little less drinking
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
