[Verse 1]
Walking down an empty road
I saw a man in old grey clothes, a stranger
Passing by he smiled at me
But when I looked, I realised the danger
[Bridge 1]
For his eyes they looked so empty and cold
And something told me that I'm gonna be rolled
In my pocket only cents and dimes
But then for them he'd gladly kill me
[Verse 2]
Walking past and walking fast
I managed just to slip around a corner
Thought he'd hear my running feet
As I went pounding down the street like thunder
[Bridge 2]
Well I've never heard my heart beat so fast
And I've never been so scared in the past
And I never ever realised that this place could be evil to me
[Chorus]
Billy Porter
You didn't tell me that I needed a gun
Billy Porter
When you wrote you said that this place is fun
What have I done?
[Bridge 2]
Well I've never heard my heart beat so fast
And I've never been so scared in the past
And I never ever realised that this place could be evil to me
[Verse 3]
Let me tell ya'
Now Billy's smart and Billy's tough
He's good to have when the going's rough he told me
"Don't go out on your own at night for if you do you'll have to fight, stay by me"
[Bridge 3]
Now he's teaching me each and every day
And I think that in this place I might stay
And I never ever realised what a roughneck I would turn out to be
[Chorus]
Billy Porter
You didn't tell me that I needed a gun
Billy Porter
When you wrote you said that this place is fun
What can be done?
[Outro]
Billy Porter
You didn't tell me that I needed a gun
Billy Porter
When you wrote you said that this place is fun
Billy Porter
You never told me that I'd be on the run
Billy Porter
What would father say if he saw his son?
Billy Porter
You ain't told me that I needed a gun
Billy Porter
When you wrote you said that this place is fun
