《Shoot First(LP版)》歌词

[00:00:01] Shoot First - Judy Collins

[00:00:10] The minstrel boy to the war is gone

[00:00:18] In the ranks of death you'll find him

[00:00:26] His father's sword he has girded on

[00:00:34] And his wild harp swung behind him

[00:01:02] Go get your guns it's time to play

[00:01:04] Let's hurry up don't waste the day

[00:01:06] Out in the park we'll stage a fight

[00:01:08] Just like on the T V

[00:01:10] You play the one who has to die

[00:01:12] I'll shoot the gun and you will cry

[00:01:15] You will fall down and I will run

[00:01:17] Just like on the T V

[00:01:19] My daddy has a gun for real

[00:01:21] He says he'll teach me to use it

[00:01:23] I'm gonna have my own someday

[00:01:25] Just like on the T V

[00:01:28] My daddy told me what to do

[00:01:30] If anybody bothers you

[00:01:32] He says the law is on our side

[00:01:34] Just like on the T V

[00:01:38] You've gotta shoot first

[00:01:41] Shoot first you've gotta shoot first

[00:01:45] And ask your questions later

[00:01:48] Shoot first you've gotta shoot first

[00:01:52] Shoot first

[00:01:54] You gotta get them before they get you

[00:02:10] My older brother has his own

[00:02:12] It's got a handle made of bone

[00:02:14] He carries it all over town

[00:02:16] Just like on the T V

[00:02:18] My daddy gave my mama one

[00:02:20] Genuine real pearl-handled gun

[00:02:23] She says she gonna have some fun

[00:02:25] Just like on the T V

[00:02:27] Did you see who got shot last night

[00:02:29] I stayed up to watch him

[00:02:31] They rushed him off to surgery

[00:02:33] Right there on the T V

[00:02:36] Gosh I hope they catch the guy

[00:02:38] I think they ought to shoot him

[00:02:40] But if they bring him back alive

[00:02:42] He'll be on the T V

[00:02:46] You've gotta shoot first

[00:02:49] Shoot first you've gotta shoot first

[00:02:53] And ask your questions later

[00:02:55] Shoot first you've gotta shoot first

[00:03:00] Shoot first

[00:03:02] You gotta get them before they get you

[00:03:53] I've got to go it's getting late

[00:03:55] I wish I had a real gun

[00:03:57] Then I would never be afraid

[00:03:59] Like some guys on T V

[00:04:01] I'd never use my gun on you

[00:04:03] You'd never have to worry

[00:04:06] You'd be the good guy on my side

[00:04:08] Just like on the T V

[00:04:10] I think when I grow up someday

[00:04:12] I'm gonna be a Green Beret

[00:04:14] I saw them sailing off to war

[00:04:17] Last night on the T V

[00:04:19] My daddy says it's not a game

[00:04:21] We've got to play to win it

[00:04:23] He says I'll have to learn to fight

[00:04:25] Just like on the T V

[00:04:29] You've gotta shoot first

[00:04:32] Shoot first you've gotta shoot first

[00:04:36] And ask your questions later

[00:04:39] Shoot first you've gotta shoot first

[00:04:43] Shoot first

[00:04:45] You gotta get them before they get you

[00:04:48] Shoot first shoot first

[00:04:51] You've gotta shoot first

[00:04:54] And ask your questions later

[00:04:56] Shoot first you've gotta shoot first

[00:05:00] Shoot first

[00:05:02] You gotta get them before they get you

[00:05:28] Land of Song said the warrior bard

[00:05:33] Tho' all the world betrays thee

[00:05:40] One sword at least thy rights shall guard

[00:05:49] One faithful harp shall praise thee
