[Verse 1] I'm a cool three pounds of cold blue steel I shoot even better than the way I feel Made to fit right in your hand Why I'll never understand [Verse 2] I could've been a hammer or a railroad spike I could've been a train rolling through the night But they gave my voice such a terrible sound That I wish they'd left me in the ground [Chorus] I'm a peacemaker Don't know how I got my name I'm a peacemaker If I don't deserve the credit Why do I deserve the blame? [Verse 3] When the lion lays down with the lamb Then you won't find me in nobody's hand Till that time I will remain Till the sinners lay down with the saints [Chorus X2] [Outro] I'm a cool three pounds of cold blue steel I shoot even deader than the way I feel
