Liz Longley The Gun & The Gold song lyrics

He said, "Get on your knees and do what you're told"

He had his hand on the gun, his eyes on the gold

And I was the gold, I was the prize

But I wasn't gonna fold at an easy price

I was paralyzed on the hardwood floor

I couldn't find my voice, I couldn't find the door

So I prayed to God he'd burn in hell

Oh, and what he did I'll never tell

When midnight came, he was fast asleep

I tiptoed slowly and the floorboard creaked

But I had his gun, it was everything I needed

Oh, the joy I felt as he begged and pleaded

I said, "Get on your knees and do what you're told"

I had my hands on the gun, my eyes on the gold

And I took my time, I aimed real good

And I shot him where a smart girl would
