lyrics

Big Man with a Gun

Caught off guard as I walked inside
My life quickly flashed before my eyes
I struggled to keep a grasp on my pride
As the anger within me began to rise
You told me to get down on my knees
Do as I say and as I please
Put the money in the bag and do it fast
I have to be out in 90 seconds flat

Big man with a gun
Little man in prison
Big man with a gun
You better hide, you better run

You thought you had your heist all planned out
But you parked on a street with only one way out
You had a gun to your head and you were on your knees
It’s not déjà vu; it’s what you did to me

Big man with a gun
Little man in prison
Big man with a gun
You better hide, you better run

Shoot it!

You thought you were a big man with a gun
But now you’re doing ten years in prison
You’ll be middle aged next time you’re free
And you better hope you don’t run into me

Big man with a gun
Little man in prison
Big man with a gun
You better hide, you better run

Big man with a gun
Little man in prison
Big man with a gun
You better hide, you better run
