Son of a Gun by Sanford Clark Lyrics

Genre: country | Year: 1959

[Verse 1]
It hurts to be told
When you're not very old
That you're an outlaw's son
And the older you get
They won't let you forget
That you're the son of a gun

[Refrain]
A bad, bad gun
The son of a gun

[Verse 2]
And then you meet
Someone so sweet
And she says her heart you've won
But her old dad
Gets awfully mad
She'll marry no son of a gun

[Refrain]
A bad, bad gun
The son of a gun
[Verse 3]
One day her dad
Must face a bad
A bad outlaw with a gun
But you're quick on the draw
And you save her pa
You no good son of a gun

[Refrain]
A bad, bad gun
You son of a gun

[Verse 4]
Now everyone
Who is someone
Is proud of the outlaw's son
Now you're one of the crowd
Her dad's so proud
She'll marry the son of a gun

[Refrain]
A bad, bad gun
The son of a gun
