Kenny Rogers Lyrics
"Trigger Happy Kid"

Trigger Happy Kid
Michael Martin Murphy
Larry Cansler
From The Ballard of Calico
Go ahead crazy cowboy
Try to gun down the wind.
Can't find your enemies;
so you shoot down your friends.
Now your body lies broken,
and you may win in the end
But will you be strong when your
enemies are gone-
My trigger happy friend.
Oh your daddies a worker,
yes, he digs underground.
He's the one who needs freedom,
So you're shooting him down,..
And your mama's a house wife
she didn't die for your sins.
You say she's insane,
so your barrel is aimed
My trigger happy friend,
When your six guns are empty,
empty just like your eyes
Oh your friends they won't speak then-
They won't tell no more lies.
Oh you won't have to fight then,
you'll have money to spend-
But a little boy who hid
saw what you did ,.
He's a trigger happy kid.
