Put Out The Fire (Remastered 2011)

They called him a hero

In the land of the free

But he wouldn't shake my hand, boy

He disappointed me

So I got my handgun

And I blew him away

That critter was a bad guy

I had to make him pay

You might fear for my reason

I don't care what they say

Look out, baby, it's the season

For the mad masquerade

Put out the fire

Put out the fire

Put out the fire

Oh, you need a bullet like a hole in the head

Put out the fire

Put out the fire

Put out the fire

Don't believe what your grandaddy said

She was my lover

It was a shame that she died

But the constitution's right on my side

'Cause I caught my lover in my neighbour's bed

I got retribution, filled 'em full of lead

I've been told it's the fashion

To let me on the streets again

It's nothing but a crime of passion

And I'm not to blame

Put out the fire

Put out the fire

Put out the fire

You need a weapon like a hole in the head

Put out the fire

Put out the fire

Put out the fire

And let your sons and your daughters sleep sound in their beds

You know a gun never killed nobody

You can ask anyone

People get shot by people

People with guns

Oh yeah

Put out the fire

Put out the fire

You need a gun like a hole in the head

Put out the fire

Put out the fire

Put out the fire

Just tell me that old fashioned gun law is dead
