Girls With Guns Lyrics By Tommy Shaw

    i’ll tell you now
    and i won’t tell you twice
    where when and how
    i got some bad advice

    i never thought i could handle
    a girl with guns
    let me tell you you can bet
    that i’m not the only one

    stand tall
    don’t think small
    don’t get your back
    against the wall
    shoot straight
    i can’t wait
    aim for the heart
    and fire away

    i’ve come around
    i understand today
    she’s a target now
    i’m gonna have my way

    everybody says don’t go messing
    with a girl with guns
    they don’t need you
    they couldn’t love you
    they couldn’t be any fun

    stand tall
    don’t think small
    don’t put your back
    against the wall
    shoot straight
    don’t wait to fire away

    an innocent bystander
    who forgets to look both ways
    who never tries to understand her
    won’t feel the heat till it’s too late
    so i tell you

    stand tall
    don’t think small
    don’t put your back
    against the wall
    shoot straight
    don’t wait to fire away

    stand tall
    don’t think small
    don’t put your back
    against the wall
    shoot straight
    i can’t wait
    aim for the heart
    and fire away

    stand tall
    don’t think small
    don’t put your back
    against the wall
    shoot straight
    don’t wait to fire away
