Life is so strange when its changin', yes indeed 
Well I've seen the hard times and the pressure's been on me 
But I keep on workin' like the workin' man do 
And I've got my act together, gonna walk all over you

[chorus]
Gimme back my bullets 
Put 'em back where they belong 
Ain't foolin' around 'cause I done had my fun 
Ain't gonna see no more damage done 
Gimme back my bullets

Sweet talkin' people done ran me out of town 
And I drank enough whiskey to float a battleship around 
But I'm leavin' this game one step ahead of you 
And you will not hear me cry 'cause I do not sing the blues

[chorus]
Gimme back my bullets 
Put 'em back where they belong 
Ain't foolin' around 'cause I done had my fun 
Ain't gonna see no more damage done 
Gimme back, gimme back my bullets 
Oh, put 'em back... where they belong

Been up and down since I turned seventeen 
Well I've been on top, and then it seems I lost my dream 
But I got it back, I'm feelin' better everyday 
Tell all those pencil pushers, better get out of my way

[chorus]
Gimme back my bullets 
Put 'em back where they belong 
Ain't foolin' around, 'cause I done had my fun 
Ain't gonna see no more damage done 
Gimme back, gimme back my bullets 
Oh put 'em back where they belong 
Gimme back my bullets
