Jon Bon Jovi – Billy Get Your Guns

Posted in Bon Jovi | 2 comments

“I just seen trouble, he’s calling out your name tonight!” This is the opening track to Jon Bon Jovi’s Blaze of Glory album, written for Young Guns 2. Billy the Kid vs Pat Garrett. If you haven’t seen this movie, I suggest you go see it because it’s just brilliant!

Jon Bon Jovi – Billy Get Your Guns

I just seen trouble, he’s calling out your name tonight
Billy get your guns
You could walk away but I know you were born to fight
So Billy get your guns
The bandileros are strung out in the promenade
Billy get your guns
And the wind whispers softly that the devil’s to blame
Billy get your guns

Billy get your guns
There’s trouble blowing like a hurricane
Billy get your guns
That’s the price on your head for the price of fame
And it’ll never change
Billy get your guns

There’s a whiskey bottle empty sittin’ on the bar
Billy get your guns
And some organ grinder singing about some sucker moving on
Billy get your guns
All the whores are hanging out waiting to get paid
Billy get your guns
From some Johnny on the spot who said hey keep the change baby
Billy get your guns

They christened you with whiskey
And there’s fire running through your veins
Well you’re an outlaw just the same

And every night a bullet wears your name
