You Can't Get a Man With a Gun
Irving Berlin

Oh, my mother was frightened by a shotgun, they say

That's why I'm such a wonderful shot

I'd be out in the cactus and I'd practice all day

And now tell me what have I got?

I'm quick on the trigger with targets not much bigger

Than a pinpoint. I'm number one

But my score with a feller is lower than a cellar

Oh you can't get a man with a gun

When I'm with a pistol, I sparkle like a crystal

Yes, I shine like the morning sun

But I lose all my luster, when with a bronco buster

Oh you can't get a man with a gun

With a gun, with a gun, oh you can't get a man with a gun

If I went to battle with someone's herd of cattle

You'd have steak when the job was done

But, if I shot the herder, they'd holler bloody murder

And you can't shoot a male in the tail like a quail

Oh you can't get a man with a gun

I'm cool, brave, and daring to see a lion glaring

When I'm out with my Remington

But a look from a mister will raise a fever blister

Oh you can't get a man with a gun

The gals with umbrellas are always out with fellers

In the rain or the blazin' sun

But a man never trifles with gals who carry rifles

Oh you can't get a man with a gun

With a gun, with a gun, oh you can't get a man with a gun

A man's love is mighty, he'll even buy a nightie

For a gal who he thinks is fun

But they don't buy pajamas for pistol packin' mamas

And you can't get a hug from a mug, with a slug

Oh you can't get a man with a gun
