"Rabbit Gets The Gun" lyrics

Cody Johnson & Jay Buchanan Lyrics

"Rabbit Gets The Gun"

King Fox had a golden scepter
He ruled with an iron fist
He taxed the birds for flying
For swimming, he taxed the fish
Now they all bow down before him
Not out of reverence, but out of fear
The kingdom lost its luster
Rusted out by hopeless tears, uh

Underground, the worms are stirring
And a-warring down below
There was anger, there was danger
There was a talk of overthrow
And the bullies can't be bullied
When the bully won't let down
And the whispers turned to bullets
Started aiming for the crown

Well, it ain't no fun when the rabbit gets the gun
Well, it ain't no fun at all
You can cry, cry, cry and run, run, run
But the hammer's still gonna fall
The first shall be last, last shall be first
When your kingdom comes undone
I'm here to tell you that it ain't no fun
When the rabbit gets the gun, no

Now you can call this a warning
Or a lesson to be learned
But you can't un-start a fire
Once the bridges start to burn
So go on and eat your supper
With your silver spoon in hand
And enjoy the corn that you're growing
Out on somebody else's land

Well, it ain't no fun when the rabbit gets the gun
Well, it ain't no fun at all
You can cry, cry, cry and run, run, run
But the hammer's still gonna fall
The first shall be last, last shall be first
When your kingdom comes undone
Everybody knows that it ain't no fun
When the rabbit gets the gun (No, it ain't, son)

Rabbit and the gun
Rabbit and the gun
Rabbit and the gun
You know the rabbit's got the gun

And it ain't no fun when the rabbit gets the gun
No, it ain't no fun at all
Yes, you can cry, cry, cry and run, run, run
But the hammer's still gonna fall, yeah
The first shall be last, last shall be first
When your kingdom comes undone
Well, everybody knows that it ain't no fun
When the rabbit gets the gun
I said, everybody knows that it ain't no fun
When the rabbit gets the gun
