Gunman Lyrics by Adrian Belew

Gunman Lyrics

    (belew/bowie)

    Gunman, my sort of star, we put you there
    You're all of us now, you're all over town
    On wrappers and cans, you're bigger than life
    You're braver than dad
    You're a gunman, holding your own
    You're a gunman, never alone

    Gunman, leader of packs, shadow of death,
    Killer in chic, never betrayed, friend of our kids
    You're a gunman, holding your own
    You're a gunman, never alone

    Gunman, trader in arms
    The kids on the streets are buying your charms

    Gunman, my sort of star,
    We're bleeding for you, we put you there
    What would you give, you're all of us now
    We're burning for you
    You're all over town, gunman,
    You're on wrappers and cans,
    You're bigger than life and we're dying for you
    And you're braver than dad, gunman
    You're woman are dogs
    But they're braver than you

    We're bleeding for you
    What would you give
    We're burning for you, gunman

    We invented you,
    Now we've got to live with you
    You're more solid than a rock
    A rock of cocaine or crack or ice or death,
    Like a rock of death
    Like a gravestone,
    Gunman
