Nils Lofgren - Jealous Gun lyrics

I came into this World, and I tried what I pleased His shot rang with a low, I fell on my knees I managed to stand, finally walk away I ain't stopped hiding since that day… And the Jealous Gun comes a' hunting One purposed to track me down I hear his footsteps, now I'm off running And this trap you call the World It's driving me underground Turning me upside down You'll find those running wild, k** only to survive Still man preserves destruction, k**ing off wildlife Your crime is as bitter, as these hearts you melt And your guns 'bout as funny as a cry for help And the Jealous Gun comes a' hunting One purposed to track me down I hear his footsteps, now I'm off running And this trap you call the World It's driving me underground Turning me upside down Oh jealousy, jealousy So we run, we both run from the hunter And we flee his bullet spree I have a word for you hunter, I see you hot on my trail I'll dynamite your visions, blow up your animal jail I hide in the wolves' den, glowing like embers You perfect creatures won't forget, what this scarred one remembers And the Jealous Gun comes a' hunting One purposed to track me down I hear his footsteps, now I'm off running And this trap you call the World It's driving me underground Turning me upside down Oh jealousy, jealousy
