Lyrics
I'm not worried.
What will it take for me to care?
Sitting watching TV,
Six gunshots break the night.
What does it take to kill a man?
An ego wants him dead.
Hey man put your gun down.
Bullets don't belong in this town.
I said,
Hey man put your gun down.
Bullets don't belong in this town.
Watching from my window,
Pull a body from a van.
A girl screams "This can't be happening!"
A Policeman takes her hand.
Hey man put your gun down.
Bullets don't belong in this town.
Hey man put your gun down.
Bullets don't belong in this town.
