Pontiac Stove Company - Buried My Gun Lyrics

Got a cold shirt on my back cause it's been raining
And my shoes are thin from walking way to long
Been running since the night I pulled the trigger
And the noose around my neck is nearly gone

The deputy's been asking lots of questions
The posters on the wall show my face
Momma buried my gun down in the corner
Of the old red barn down by the Wilson's place

The night I left my home I kissed my babies
I took my wife and held her when she cried
I jumped a train headed south to Texas
To find some no name town where I can hide

Everybody knows I'm guilty
I know what I done was right
He may have been my only brother
Brother it was one too many times

Someday when my children ask their mother
"How come dad left us and left this town?"
She just might take em' down to Wilson's red barn
And dig up my old gun that's in the ground
