歌曲歌詞
''My shadowfollows me
Wherever I shouldchance to go''
John the gun didsay
''If you shouldchance to meet me
As I wander to andfro
Sad would be yourday
My life is mineand the light did shine
Till the guns theydid go through me
So now I shallnever fall
Ideals of peaceare gold which fools have found
Upon the plains ofwar
I shall destroythem all ''
Put away your gunsof steel
Death comes toosoon for all
Your master he mayneed you soon
And you must heedhis call
''I am the masterof the games
That you willhardly ever play
So I will teachyour sons
And if they shoulddie
Before the eveningof their span of days
Why then they willdie young ''
Put away your gunsof steel
Death comes toosoon for all
Your master he mayneed you soon
And you must heedhis call
''Condemn me not
For always will Iplay the game of war
In moonshine or insun
And if any crossthe path I choose to tread
Their chances theyare poor
My name is johnthe gun ''
Put away your gunsof steel
Death comes toosoon for all
Your master he mayneed you soon
And you must heedhis call
