His daddy walked into a liquor store on Friday night
With a heart beatin' fast, tremblin' hands and desperate eyes
He had a little boy, still he made that choice
The boy grew up in the shadow cast by his old man
His future stained from the blood on his daddy's hands
Though he shared his name, he was not the same
He said, No
(No)
You can't make me go down that road
Heaven knows
(Knows)
I won't let you bury my soul
I'm gonna fight till I die, there's nowhere to run
From what the world expects you to become
When you're the son of a gun
Son of a gun
It's hard to live in a dirty town and keep your hands clean
Those boys down the street took him for a ride when he was 15
He was in the dark in a stolen car
Well, it was too late turn around when the sirens wailed
They hit the gas, screamin' fast, headed straight for hell
When the blue lights flashed, so did the years pass
He said, No
(No)
You can't make me go down that road
Heaven knows
(Knows)
I won't let you bury my soul
I'm gonna fight till I die, there's nowhere to run
From what the world expects you to become
When you're the son of a gun
He saw the driver reach down
From under the seat, a pistol came out
The policeman spoke about the boy at his graveside
How he took the hit of a 38 and saved his life
And he swore he heard these last words
No
(No)
You can't make me go down that road
Heaven knows
(Knows)
I won't let you bury my soul
I'm gonna fight till I die, there's nowhere to run
From what the world expects you to become
From what the world expects you to become
When you're the son of a gun
Son of a gun
Oh, son of a gun, son of a gun
Oh, son of a gun, yeah, son of a gun
Son of a gun, son of a gun
