Street Fighting Sun - Blitzen Trapper

Well I took my lady and my rifle and my truck

And I drove to the top of the hill

I took my gun and I shot down the sun

But the sun it ain't so easy to kill

So I pushed out my skis left my lady in the trees

Started swinging like an old-time saloon

Had an all-day kickdown dragout fight

With the sun and his brother the moon

You

So daddy don't you stop but daddy don't you sleep

Till the sun is but a beggar

Throwing tricks up in the street

So daddy don't you stop but daddy don't you sleep

For the moon is but a mirror

And the sun is dead asleep

Ah you

You ain't nothing but a street fighting sun

You ain't nothing but a street fighting sun

You ain't nothing but a street fighting sun

Well I woke up on the street

With the shadows at my feet

Thinking maybe I should call it a day

Till I heard the rooster call sitting up on the wall

I guess he had him something to say

So I wandered all around in the mountains in the dark

Getting silly by the light of the moon

For the sun had gone away guess I whipped him anyway

Now I'm thinking that I spoke too soon

Oh

So daddy don't you stop but daddy don't you sleep

Till the sun is but a beggar

Throwing tricks up in the street

So daddy don't you stop but daddy don't you sleep

For the moon is but a mirror

And the sun is dead asleep

Oh yeah

You ain't nothing but a street fighting sun

You ain't nothing but a street fighting sun
