Aaron Sterling - Badge and Gun lyrics

[Chorus] Give me my badge and gun Give me the road that I may run Give me that peaceful, wandering free I used to know I've waited all I can But I'm just not a patient man And I've been hiding here for seven months or so [Verse] Hand me down my golden hat And grab the winter one at that You never know how long I'll be away Give me my badge and gun Give me the songs that I once sung Give me those jet-black, kick-back, lay down nights alone This house is safe and warm But I was made to chase the storm Taking the whole world on with big old empty arms Tell my friends I tried my best That one day I just up and left They probably saw it coming anyway What can I say Hey, hey The lock is on the cellar door I can't remember what it's for I ain't been down those stairs in oh so long So, so long [Chorus] [Outro] The copy of your key is hanging where it used to be Good as you've always been to me The life I need to lead Is somewhere out there, calling over those hills
