Takin’ Shots Lyrics by Don Everly

Sunset Towers

0

As I look around from my outpost on the hill
There ain’t much single sight of my platoon
Just a row of empty helmets and ammunition shells
Guess they all got up and run for ’elp

Ain’t there anybody out there, takin’ shots anymore
Did they all give up and go to fight their own private war
Ain’t there anybody out there, takin’ shots anymore
Am I left here on my own

Is that Ruby on the phone
I ain’t home

If I wave my white flag and I surrendered would you know it
Would I prove that our position to hypnotic sense to call
In my cause I have wanderеd, from the subject to the point
In my timе I have changed, both my reason and my mind

Ain’t there anybody out there, takin’ shots anymore
Did they all give up and go to fight their own private war
Ain’t there anybody out there, takin’ shots anymore
Am I left here on my own

Is that Ruby on the phone
I ain’t home

Ain’t there anybody out there, takin’ shots anymore
Did they all give up and go to fight their own private war
Ain’t there anybody out there, takin’ shots anymore
Am I left here on my own

Is that Ruby on the phone
I ain’t home
