Gunpowder And Lead Lyrics By Miranda Lambert

    county road under my feet
    nothing on this white rock but little ol me
    i’ve got two miles ’till he makes bail
    and if i’m right we’re headed straight for hell

    i’m going home gonna load my shotgun
    wait by the door and light a cigarette
    if he wants a fight well now he’s got one
    and he ain’t seen me crazy yet
    he slapped my face and he shook me like a rag doll
    don’t that sound like a real man
    i’m gonna show him what little girls are made of
    gunpowder and lead

    well it’s half past ten another sixpack in
    and i can feel the rumble like a cold black wind
    he pulls in the drive the gravel flies
    he don’t know what’s waitin’ here this time

    hey i’m going home gonna load my shotgun
    wait by the door and light a cigarette
    if he wants a fight well now he’s got one
    and he ain’t seen me crazy yet
    he slapped my face and he shook me like a rag doll
    don’t that sound like a real man
    i’m gonna show him what little girls are made of
    gunpowder and lead

    his fist is big but my gun’s bigger
    he’ll find out when i pull the trigger

    i’m going home gonna load my shotgun
    wait by the door and light a cigarette
    if he wants a fight well now he’s got one
    and he ain’t seen me crazy yet
    he slapped my face and he shook me like a rag doll
    don’t that sound like a real man
    i’m gonna show him what little girls are made of
    gunpowder and gunpowder and lead
    gunpowder and lead yeah yeah hey
