Lost in the shuffle the hustle and bustle of the city Just a sweet young girl in a knockdown world, such a pity Well she never worried, growin' up in a hurry No one showed her the right She met a man, he took her hand one night Out on the street all the people you meet Wanna use you for your innocent ways Running around you're the talk of the town today You were so cool you played by the rules You thought you had it in the palm of your hand You're on your way to the top and They won't let you stop 'til you're there Now you're Chorus: Under The Gun Out on the Run Paying the price with your flesh and your blood It's bringing you down (bringing you down) Livin' your life Under The Gun Under the lights, you're feelin' the bite Of big city days and big city ngihts Now you're alone, you wanna go home, but you can't You're goin' outta your head, they're in and outta your bed You're losin' sight of what you thought was the truth They'll string you along 'til you're tattered and torn Then along comes somebody new When you're (Chorus) You were on the top but now you're runnin' out of time Open your eyes, now you're under the gun, under the gun (Chorus)
