Lyrics:

Ray, I got to tell ya
You got to come take that gun back
'Cause these things that I've been shooting at
Are getting all too real
Don't wanted to hurt nobody
But I keep on aiming closer
Don't think that I can keep it
Feeling like I feel

Ray, I know I told ya
That I'd keep it for you
I know I said, 'I trusted me
With it more than you'
But somethin' happened last night
That made me reconsider
And I need you to drive out here
And relieve me of it too

I figured after 40 years
I wouldn't still be having nightmares
You'd thinking that now we're older
That war would finally be over
Ray, I'm in my 60s
And the nights ain't getting shorter
Only my patience
And checkbook and fuse

Ray, I got to tell ya
You got to take that gun back
'Cause these things that I've been shooting at
Are getting all too real
