You don't run
You don't hide
You never know who is on your side
Get it straight
Things are rough
And you don't quit when you had enough

People tell me I'm a desperate man
But they don't know me that well
'Cause it's not who I am
They say I need to make a brand new start
But that's not easy to do with this
Gun runner's heart

Wanted men
So they say
Making deals in a dark cafe
Some will die
Some will live
Some will take what the weak will give

I work for you, it makes no difference to me
If you want a revolution that's the way it'll be
I take a powder keg and blow it apart
It's so easy to do with this gun runner's heart

Gun runner
Can't get away

You got faith, you got hope
You're gonna hang using your own rope
You got fights, I got skills
If you buy it's gonna pay your bills
I took some chances, baby, I took my fame
From every job in this world
Who had to have his own name
I'm tired of running
Playing a part
It's so easy to die with this gun runner
