Machine Gun Lyrics

JIMI: 

 "HAPPY NEW YEAR FIRST OF ALL. I HOPE WE'LL HAVE A MILLION OR TWO MILLION 

 MORE OF THEM... IF WE CAN GET OVER THIS SUMMER, HE HE HE. RIGHT I'D LIKE 

 TO DEDICATE THIS ONE TO THE DRAGGIN' SCENE THAT'S GOIN' ON ALL THE SOLDIERS


 THAT ARE FIGHTIN' IN CHICAGO, MILWAUKEE AND NEW YORK... OH YEAS, AND ALL 

 THE SOLDIERS FIGHTIN' IN VIETNAM. LIKE TO DO A THING CALLED 'MACHINE GUN'."

 

 MACHINE GUN

 TEARING MY BODY ALL APART

 

 MACHINE GUN

 TEARING MY BODY ALL APART

 

 EVIL MAN MAKE ME KILL YA

 EVIL MAN MAKE YOU KILL ME

 EVIL MAN MAKE ME KILL YOU

 EVEN THOUGH WE'RE ONLY FAMILIES APART

 

 WELL I PICK UP MY AXE AND FIGHT LIK A BOMBER

 (YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN)

 HEY AND YOUR BULLETS KEEP KNOCKING ME DOWN

 

 HEY I PICK UP MY AXE AND FIGHT LIKE A BOMBER NOW

 YEAH BUT YOU STILL BLAST ME DOWN TO THE GROUND

 

 THE SAME WAY YOU SHOOT ME DOWN BABY

 YOU'LL BE GOING JUST THE SAME 

 THREE TIMES THE PAIN

 AND YOUR OWN SELF TO BLAME

 HEY MACHINE GUN

 

 

 OOOOOOOOOO

 

 I AIN'T AFRAID OF YOUR MESS NO MORE, BABE

 I AIN'T AFRAID NO MORE

 AFTER A WHILE YOUR YOUR CHEAP TALK DON'T EVERN CAUSE ME PAIN

 SO LET YOUR BULLETS FLY LIKE RAIN

 

 'CAUSE I KNOW ALL THE TIME YOU'RE WRONG BABY

 AND YOU'LL BE GOIN' JUST THE SAME 

 YEAH MACHINE GUN

 TEARING MY FAMILY APART

 YEAH YEAH ALRIGHT

 TEARING MY FAMILY APART

 

 DON'T YOU SHOOT HIM DOWN

 HE'S ABOUT TO LEAVE HERE

 DON'T YOU SHOOT HIM DOWN

 HE'S GOT TO STAY HERE

 HE AIN'T GOING NOWHERE

 HE'S BEEN SHOT DOWN TO THE GROUND 

 OH WHERE HE CAN'T SURVIVE NO NO

 

 YEAH THAT'S WHAT WE DON'T WANNA HEAR ANY MORE, ALRIGHT

 NO BULLETS

 AT LEAST HERE, HUH HUH

 NO GUNS, NO BOMBS

 HUH HUH

 NO NOTHIN', JUST LET'S ALL LIVE AND LIVE

 YOU KNOW INSTEAD OF KILLIN'
