Lyrics

Daddy?s Gun
Words and Music by Rob Niemi

My daddy told me
To never let the wind roll me
To not do as he?s done, take good care of his son
And then daddy left me

And I wish I could
Do as he said I should
But it flows through my veins like cold steel in flames
And daddy knew it would

I?m the first born son of a first born son
And I?m the only one
Yeah, I?m the first born son, a bullet you can?t outrun
My daddy?s gun

Now mama?s cryin?
?Cause she?s seen too much dyin?
She just can?t understand, rest won?t come for a man
Til he?s done fighting

Whoa, no, I hear it
Like the voice of the Spirit
Like the beat of the drum
The scream of the gun
And I don?t fear it, no

And I?m the first born son of a first born son
And I?m the only one
Yeah, I?m the first born son, a bullet you can?t outrun
My daddy?s gun
