John Mellencamp - Without A Shot

 (versiyon 1)
Metin boyutu: ( + Büyült ) ( - Küçült)   
Put your guns out on the table, throw your bullets on the floor

This weary old house can't take it anymore

From the ovens in the kitchen to the chains out in the dirt

Rope hanging in the bedroom that's some of our dirty work



The distant sleeping shadows that lie out in the yard

The wind that distorts the meaning of who we really are

Saluting of ourselves as we pass by our mirrors

This show of phony adulation just masquerades all our fears



So we open our eyes at midnight, see the setting of the sun

Foundation is crumbling, the inner structure's gone

Used up by corruption and the passage of time

We hope we've got some fight left

'Cause our children, our children are dying



So we think that forgiveness is a God given right

And equality for all is just a waste of our time

With our nickel plated Jesus chained around our necks

Handing out verses of scripture like we wrote it down ourselves



Respect that we once had went up the water spout

Tried to keep it secret but the secret was found out

Got to thinking high and mighty like everything was a lock

Some now say this house can be taken without a shot



So the hole gets dug deeper with every wedding bell

And we sell each other down the road 'til there's nothing left to sell

And slowly but surely we disappear without a trace

We point our fingers at each other say what the hell happened to this place

Without a shot, without a shot, without a shot
