Lyrics The Neville Brothers

The Neville Brothers

Line Of Fire

Put down that gun, boy, you're in the line of fire

Get off that corner, you're in the line of fire

War, the order of city life

Where street signs are markers of battle lines

Here children disappear without a trace

The thrills of the treasure are poison-laced

Scream, oh, scream, mama you better run

Dream, oh, dream, brother gave up that gun

Put down that gun, boy, you're in the line of fire

Get off that corner, you're in the line of fire

Lines are drawn down every street

Where neighbors are strangers who never meet

Guns aren't friends to anyone

You don't know where the next shot is coming from

Tears, oh, tears, better not make her cry, boy

Fears, oh, fears, you're never too young to die, boy

Put down that gun, boy, you're in the line of fire

Get off that corner, you're in the line of fire

Put down that gun, boy, you're in the line of fire

Get off that corner, you're in the line of fire

Screams, oh, screams, better not make her cry, boy

Dreams, oh, dreams, never too young to die, boy

Put down that gun, boy, you're in the line of fire

Get off that corner, you're in the line of fire

Put down that gun, boy, you're in the line of fire

Get off that corner, you're in the line of fire

Put down that gun, boy, you're in the line of fire

Get off that corner, you're in the line of fire

Put down that gun, boy, you're in the line of fire
