James And The Cold Gun lyrics
by Kate Bush
James, come on homeYou've been gone too long babyWe can't let out hero die aloneWe miss you day and nightYou left town to live by the rifleYou left us to fightBut it just ain't right to take away the light(Chorus)Remember Genie, from the casinoShe's still a-waiting in her big brass bedThe boys from your gang are knocking whiskey back'Till they get out of handAnd wish they were deadThey're only lonely for the life they ledWith their old friendOoh, James are you selling your soul to a cold gun?Where lies your heart?It's not there in the buckskin babyIt's not there in the gin that makes you laugh long and loudYou're a coward JamesYour running away from humanityYou're running out on realityIt won't be funny when theyRat-a-tat-tat you down(Chorus)
