Shell Casings

Shell casings on the floor as the gun goes off

I heard

Bang bang bang bang bang

Shell casings on the floor as the gun goes off

I heard

Bang bang bang bang bang

Jonny from the streets was a gangster son

Born he was livin' livin' on the run

He was fifteen when he picked up the gun

From that day on Jonny's life was done

He was sixteen when he caught his first case

Heard his mother crying saying 'oh what a waste'

But to live by the gun was all that he knew

On a street like this it was all you could do

Shell casings on the floor as the gun goes off

I heard

Bang bang bang bang bang

Shell casings on the floor as the gun goes off

I heard

Bang bang bang bang bang

Eighteen years old Jonny's back in the fold

A little bit bigger and a lot more bold

Now Jonny's out to even the score

Hand in his pocket holding his forty four

And then it went down

Quick as a flash

Sound of the trigger then a thunderous crash

And since his birth

His odds were none

Jonny was a boy he was a gangster son

Shell casings on the floor as the gun goes off

I heard

Bang bang bang bang bang

Shell casings on the floor as the gun goes off

I heard

Bang bang bang bang bang

Hears bang bang bang bang bang

Hears bang bang bang bang bang

Hears bang bang bang bang bang

Hears bang bang bang bang bang

Shell casings on the floor as the gun goes off

I heard

Bang bang bang bang bang

Shell casings on the floor as the gun goes off

I heard

Bang bang bang bang bang

Hears bang bang bang bang bang

Hears bang bang bang bang bang

Hears bang bang bang bang bang

Hears bang bang bang bang bang
