With a Gun

Steely Dan

Composed by: Donald Fagen/Walter Becker
I could be wrong but I have seen your face before 
You were the man that I saw running from his door 
You owed him money but you gave him something more
With a gun
With a gun 
You will be what you are just the same 
Did you pay the other man with the piece in your hand 
And leave him lying in the rain?

You were the founders of the clinic on the hill 
Until he caught you with your fingers in the till 
He slapped your hand so you settled up your bill

With a gun
With a gun 
You will be what you are just the same 
Did you pay the other man with the piece in your hand 
And leave him lying in the rain?

When you're born to play the fool 
And you've seen all the western movies 
Woe to the one who does you wrong 
You hide in the bushes 
Murder the man 
With Luger in hand

I understood that you will soon be leavin' town 
Don't try to call me when they finally run you down 
Just give fair warning any time you come around

With a gun
With a gun 
You will be what you are just the same 
Did you pay the other man with the piece in your hand 
And leave him lying in the rain?
