The Gun-Jim Reeves
This is the story of love that came undone

This is the story of two men and a gun of two men and a gun.

A man that I'd never met stole my wife and son

But that's been nearly three years now
And it's over with and done
At first I'd stare out into space while hate consumed my soul
Hate was the creed by which I lived and revenge my only goal.

But the road to happiness isn't paved with hate
I'm glad I learned how to forgive before it was too late
Now here's the way the other man paid for what he'd done
I heard it from the man's own lips, who took my wife and son.

I didn't really know this but man I'd seen him round
He's a new guard at the factory where I work west of town

This fellow swung into step with me and said I've got to talk

I listened spellbound at his words as we stood on the walk.

You the guard said hoarsely are a kind man I surmise

As he stood there with his handkerchief wiping in his eyes
Three years ago I wronged a man I stole his wife and son
I didn't realize then the terrible thing that I had done.

This thing gets hold of me at night and I can't sleep or rest
Forgive me sir, but telling it seems to get it off my chest

When my past looms up like this it kinda helps me to unload

I'm one man sir who knows for sure that you reap just what you sow.

I sure appreciate your it listening helps me a lot

You know to have that man's forgiveness I'd give everything I've got

Well I feel much better now I I didn't get your name
More why that was my wife's name before we wed
It's odd your name's the same.
You know I'd kill a man who'd do to me thing the that I've done

And when the truth got him through to he handed me his gun

As I gave the weapon back I said what's done is done
All I ask is just be kind to Jenny and my son
