G 
 What you go and do 
D 
 You go and give the boy a gun 
C 
 Now there ain't no place to run to 
C                     G 
 Ain't no place to run 

 When he hold it in his hand 

 He feel mighty he feel strong 

 Now there ain't no place to run to 

 Ain't no place to run 

 One day he may come back 

 Repay us for what we done 

 Then where you gonna run to 

 Where you gonna run 


C 
 But one fine day 
Em 
 All our problems will be solved 

 Bang bang bang 
                     G D C C 
 We'll shot him down 

 Give him drugs and give him candy 
 Anything to make him think he's happy 
 And he won't ever come for us 
 He won't ever come 
 But if he does 
 And if there's no on else around 
 Bang bang bang 
 We'll shoot him down 
 If he preys only on his neighbors 
 Brothers sisters and friends 
 We'll consider it a favor 
 We'll consider justice done 
 But if he comes for you or me 
 And we can place a gun in his hand 
 Bang bang bang 
 We'll shoot him dead 
 What you go and do 
 You go and give the boy a gun 
 Now there ain't no place to run to 
 Ain't no place to run 
 Now we'll all be at his mercy 
 If he decides to hunt us down 
 Cause there ain't no place to run to 
 Ain't no place to run 
 If he wants the chances that you took from him 
 And nothing that you own 
 Then there'll be no place to run 
 There'll no place to run 
 And if he finds himself to be 
 A refection of us all 
 Bang bang bang 
 He'll shoot us down 
 Before you can raise your eyes to read 
 The writing on the wall 
 Bang bang bang 
 He'll shoot us down 
 Before you can bridge the gulf between 
 And embrace him in your arms 
 Bang bang bang 
 He'll shoot you down
