Bang Bang Bang Lyrics


Tracy Chapman Bang Bang Bang

What you gone do
You got give the boy a gun
Now there ain't no place to run to
Ain't no place to run

When hi hold it in his hand
He feel mighty he feel strong
Now there ain't no place to run to
Ain't no place to run

One day he may come back
Repay us for what we done
Then whereyou gone run to
Where you gonna run

But one fine day
all our problems will be solved
Bang Bang Bang
We'll shoot him down

Give him drougs and give him candy
Anithing to make him think he's happy
And he won't ever vome for us
He won't ever come

But if he does
And if there's no one else around
Bang Bang Bang
We'll shoot him down

If he preys only on his neighbors
Brothers sisters and friends
We'll consider it a favor
We'll consider justice done

But if he comes for you or me
And we can place a gun in his hand
Bang Bang Bang
We'll shoot him dead

What you go and do
You go and give the boy a gun
Now there ain't no place to run to
Ain't no place to run

Now we'll all be at his mercy
If he decides to hunt us down
cause there ain't no place to run to
There'll be no place to run

And if hi finds himselfe to be
A reflection of us all
Bang Bang Bang
He'll shoot us down

Before you can raise your eyes to read
The writting on the wall
Bang Bang Bang
He'll shoot us down

Before you can bridge the gulf between
And embrace him in your arms
Bang Bang Bang
He'll shoot you down
