Lord Huron - Son of a Gun lyrics
[Lord Huron - Son of a Gun lyrics]
She'd lie in the grass
And imagine the places she'd never go
And there all alone she
Would pleasure herself
With the thoughts of a man
She would never know
Lying there
She made a promise that one day she'd run
And she'd find just the man
She was looking for
Well, she fell in love with that son of a gun
But he was not the man that she took him for
When he came to town he came rambling in
On a great cloud of dust carried by the wind
Oh, it wasn't long before he pulled her in
And he asked her to come run away with him
He saw a pretty young girl
Who was ready to run
And she saw just the chance
She'd been looking for
Well, she fell in love with that son of gun
But he was not the man that she took him for
They headed out west driving into the sun
And he promised her she was the only one
Well, he was a thief and
He'd steal just for fun
He'd go cruising around with his little gun
He ran afoul of the law and decided to run
And he left her alone with their little one
Well, she was in love with that son of a gun
And the story between them it wasn't done
When she finds him she will make
Him regret he was ever born
