- Fotheringay John The Gun 歌詞
- Fotheringay
- 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.
Chorus
Put away your guns of steel,
Death comes too soon for all.
Your master he may need you soon ,
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.
(chorus)
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.
(chorus)
