I'd shoot down the preachers son
I'd shoot down anyone
Because they did nothing for me
I'd shoot at the break of dawn
I'd shoot at the early morn
Because daylight never shone upon me
The truth is my desire
Has fell upon deaf ears
And this is why
I got to keep on killing on
Keep on killing on
I'd shoot down the man on the throne
I'd shoot down all he owns
Because possessions don't govern me
I'd shoot when the river runs dry
I'd shoot for times gone by
Because history has been no good for me
The truth is my desire
Has fell upon deaf ears
And this is why
I got to keep on killing on
Keep on killing on
Keep on killing on
Keep on killing on
Keep on killing on
Keep on killing on
