Lyrics:

[Intro]
We could get somebody else
But we want someone like you [x6]

[Verse 1]
Well, as soon as I get my gun
I'll point it out the window at the setting sun
As soon as I get my gun
I'll tell you all about it when you fall in love
As soon as I get my gun
I'm gonna make a call
Well, as soon as I get my gun
Get my gun

[Verse 2]
Well the uniform isn't sewn
They make them like we give them out to anyone
As soon as we get your gun
A heckle for a pistol is a lot of fun
It's just the kind of place we run
Because the government
Because the government wants your gun
Wants your gun
Whoa

[Chorus]
Well, if I'm old enough to die for your mistakes
Then let's go
Can I bleed enough to fill up what the engine takes?
I don't know
But if you're watching up above
They're teaching me to kill
Who's teaching me to love?
Now baby
Isn't it crazy?

[Verse 3]
Well as soon as I get my gun
(As soon as I get my gun)
They'll put me on vacation underneath the sun
As soon as I get my gun
I'll holler and flash it at my belting blood
Out on the sand
Like a hole from an IED
Cause I'm holding up my gun
Holding up my gun
Yeah

[Chorus ]

Isn't it crazy?

As soon as I get my gun
(Don't even have a gun!)
As soon as I get my gun
(Don't even have a gun!)

As soon as I get my G - U - N
(Don't even have a gun!)
I'm standing out in the S - U - N
(Don't even have a gun!)

I'm never going to have a son
(Don't even have a gun!)
She's never going to have a son
(Don't even have a gun!)
I'm never going to have a S - O - N
And now I'm never going to have a S - O - N

[Chorus]

[Outro]
As soon as I get my gun
(Don't even have a gun) [x8]
