Guess Who, The - Guns, Guns, Guns Lyrics






American hunter, bring 'em up the north side
(Guns, guns, guns)
Run, take the money, here's a bullet for your boyfriend
(Guns, guns, guns)
Eagle all gone, and no more caribou
(Guns, guns, guns)
You be the red king, I'll be the yellow pawn

Godspeed, Mother Nature
Never really wanted to say goodbye
Godspeed, Mother Nature, you know that I'm calling you, darling
Never really wanted to say goodbye
Godspeed, Mother Nature
Never really wanted to say goodbye
Godspeed, Mother Nature
Never really wanted to say goodbye

Shoot a few, knock 'em down, cost you half a buck now
(Guns, guns, guns)
Babe give you kisses if you hit a rubber duck now
(Guns, guns, guns)
You be the red king, I'll be the yellow pawn
(Guns, guns, guns)
Eagle all gone, and no more caribou
(Guns, guns, guns)
Eagle all gone, and no more caribou
(Guns, guns, guns)
No more, eagle all gone, and no more caribou

Godspeed, Mother Nature
Never really wanted to say goodbye
Godspeed, Mother Nature, I'm weeping, I'm crying for you
Never really wanted to say goodbye
Godspeed, Mother Nature, you know that I'm weeping for you
Never really wanted to say goodbye
Godspeed, Mother Nature, and I'm crying
Never really wanted to say goodbye

I know you're gonna hear me, I'm weeping, nature
Weeping, Mother Nature
Never really wanted to say goodbye
And I'm weeping for you
Weeping for you, Mother Nature
And I'm crying for you
Never really wanted to say goodbye
Take care and visit me, Mother, Mother Nature
And I'm missing you
Never really wanted to say goodbye
Where have you gone?
Godspeed, Mother Nature, and I'm weeping for you

    Great song, great singer, great band.

  14. W.... S....

    Despite the resistance from the political American aspect of this fantastic rock song, why many America radio stations wouldn't play it. This absolutely should have been a massive world wide hit because it's incredibly well written lyrically and musically. It's superb and a giant rock song at its best and a jewel and masterpiece!

    Eagle all gone and no more caribou....how true

    D.... M....

    David Maye Not true at all. There is still a huge population of eagles and there is a massive herd of caribou venturing north america to this day. Lap it up though, you dumb ass.

  18. A.... E....

    god speed mother nature

  19. R.... M....

    I first heard this song nearly fifty years ago, great song fabulous band. Burton Cummings has to be one of the most under rated singers of all time. The Guess' music sparked my interest in Canada and I had the opportunity to work in Red Deer Alberta for a month back in 09,







    fell in love with the place, beautiful country, great people. I can't wait to get back there. If I had to choose to live in another country other than Australia it would Canada without a doubt. Great video, thanks for uploading it.

    P.... F....

    I disagree. The natives to the North depend on it. Plain and simple.

    P.... F....

    fuck polar bears, they'd eat you and your family alive if given the chance

  27. K.... P....

    Yes so true just a song that is very much hits home today more than ever esp all this plastic

    A beautiful tribute to the animals, and a nice statement to the hunters who destroy such beautiful creatures just to hang them on the wall..

    m.... ....

    mulemusic. Most people don't seem to realize that we are the intruders, the animals were here First! Most people think they own Everything on the planet & can use it as they see fit. WRONG!! Nature got along just fine by Itself until we showed up! Ever Since Then, .....Disaster!!

    m.... ....

    Hunters are actually the reason why animal populations still exist and are at record levels, it's called conservation. There are animals I'd definently never shoot but hunters do more for animals then most people realize. Conservation and preservation go hand to hand and with out it, these animals would be devastated by poachers. I get it though... I hate guys who take game with no respect for the animal. Animals are beautiful gifts that should be respected.

  33. G.... F....

    All the photos are of "white" animal killers., a few white women. One white fellow finally expressed my opinion....IT THEIR TESTOSTERONE !!!, castration would alleviate their aggression, and they WILL LIVE LONGER TOO. And it true, in nature, testosterone is responsible for the male aggressive "sex' drive own species. But the human white male appears to be aggressive and murderous towards ALL 4 legged male animals, including the winged ones. From the photos of white male hunters, they LIVED on this Earth, like LIVING CREATURES are their TOYS to "fuck' over and kill as they please. They show NO UNDERSTANDING that they are LIVING MIRACLES , priceless lives from the Creator.

  34. M.... L....

    Well..............this song can certainly be deemed relevant today.

  35. m.... l....

    Fantastic!

  36. S.... T....

    "Trumps' national anthem"

    S.... T....

    Fuck him and every other politician out there.
    Lying scumbag tyrants.

  37. C.... C....

    Guns, guns, guns
    Run, take the money, here's a bullet for your boyfriend

  38. J.... L....

    What a fantastic song 1st time I have heard it

  39. G.... K....

    I figure if you want to kill something do everybody a favor and shoot at something that's able to shoot back at you. leave the animals alone, they are without defense.

    G.... K....

    George Kaler Amen Brother

    G.... K....

    Go eat plants and dirt and stop purchasing meat from grocery stores. Come back in 5 years and describe how feeble you are.

  40. M.... G....

    Godspeed mother nature—we never wanted to say goodbye

    M.... G....

    Were you going...................Godspeed Mother Nature

  41. P.... F....

    This song really hits home when you think about what the world of man is going through

  42. A.... G....

    This songs kicks some serious ass

  43. M.... R....

    I have been listening to this kind of music for35years it's the first for this song it's grand

  44. j.... s....

    good stuff!

  45. D.... B....

    Nice synergy with slides and music. Thank you

  46. M.... B....

    Love that piano intro!

  47. M.... M....

    GUNS ARE FOR KILLING WHAT ELSE DO THEY DO?

    M.... M....

    Starve?

    M.... M....

    saving lives. having a gun gives you the freedom of self defense. I refuse to be subjected to the whims of others.

    M.... M....

    Self defense... for yourself and your family - don't be a moron!!!

    M.... M....

    @Michael George I know what you mean, you can't fight stupidity.

    M.... M....

    I have several that I own for the sake of history, guns pf my grandfathers and my father. I have guns from both sides of two world wars. And I have one that is part of the forgotten history of my country. It was fired in defense of my country, and 9-10 people living here don't have a clue. Guns have the value the holder puts into them.

  48. S.... N....

    *
    This came from Republi-con talker Joe Walsh today:

    Walsh: ‘It is un-American to keep guns outta our hands.’ and ‘It must be easy to get a gun.’

    My reply: Walsh demanded that there must never be gun control – the Orlando massacre is all Obama’s fault, all liberals’ fault said he.

    Yeah???

  49. j.... ....

    This is from an incredibly good album...the most underrated album in Canadian music history....Rockin'....

    j.... ....

    jordan390a I’m “Rockin” the LP, it’s so good!

  50. P.... J....

    How appropriate.

  51. L.... J....

    I don't understand how such a fine song and beautiful video garner so few views. I first heard this song when it was released and it made quite an impact. All these years on, this track (well, the message) is so much more important yet in over a year, there are still only a few folk checking this gem out, does anyone even care anymore?

    L.... J....

    Linda Jones sometimes you just have to introduce people to a song

    L.... J....

    mike george ..........I've done that for a lifetime! Cheers.

  52. P.... S....

    Great song, probably my favorite Guess Who song. Nice vid addition. Godspeed Mother Nature...never really wanted to say Goodbye. I sample this at the end of my radio show each week.

  53. R.... ....

    Perfect video for a fantastic song!!!! A+++ Thanks!

  54. c.... k....

    This is so fitting, in light of recent events (Cecil the lion). I've loved this song since I was a  teenager.

    c.... k....

    I was at a Berton Cummings concert and he mentioned that and how much he hated what happened

    c.... k....

    the thing is no one in Africa really cared about Cecil. That's because they live in 3rd world country and struggle to get food on the table. Selling that lion for hunting brought lots of money to the locals. Money to be used for necessities that we take for granted. What is more important, the life of and pain of an animal or the lively hood malnourished children? Taking a well placed bullet from a high powered rifle designed to put down large animals is probably a lot smoother of a death than what they'd typically face out in the wild.. When these kids don't get adequate food their brains cant properly develop. When these villages are so focused on survival education is not a priority. I mean no one likes animals suffering but once you put it all together one could say that selling that lion for hunting is a humanitarian act under the right circumstances. I can only imagine what it was like growing up with good music like this. but yea, lmk what you think? Have I changed your position on the issue? I am always looking to pressure test my views and I'd love to hear back because I'm sure there's aspects of the issue I'm not seeing.

  55. c.... k....

    I'm a little late to the party. This put a tear in my eye. My favorite Guess Who song of all time coupled with stunning (and heartbreaking) photographs. Kudos to you!

  56. G.... C....

    I grew up on this....never knew how great the music is, especially the vocals until I listened a lot closer lately with headphones.  Yeah, breathtaking some of the songs are.

  57. h.... ....

    This version's intro seems a little longer then I remembered it. Still good though.....

  58. L.... J....

    Bit surprised at how few viewings this has had. Apart from being such a top song, the video is breathtaking. Thanks Blue.

    L.... J....

    Because people suck and they don't care and they will burn in hell one of these days and I can't wait animals rule they're way smarter you drop a human off in the middle of nowhere and a animal out in the middle of nowhere let's see who survives

  59. A.... M....

    I had to make an endangered species slideshow for a science project in high school. I chose the Bald Eagle and used this song. I had several classmates ask me what the song was. My teacher was the only one who knew it

    A.... M....

    Great choice and kudos to your teacher.

    A.... M....

    @M Zach She was actually pretty young! Early 30's haha

    A.... M....

    Ashley Marlow aside from yourself , of course. Glad you listen to good music

    apparently the caribou is now extinct in the USA . some still live in Canada

  60. r.... p....

    By the time of the album Rockin' the long touring road was taking it's toll on the band.Though it all Burton,Jim,Gary,Greg, and Kurt release this great album.Burton called Rockin' his personal favorite Guess Who record.I think Gary's percussion and Jim's bass playing carry the entire LP.

    r.... p....

    My favorite Guess Who album fron the day I bought it. Still have it along with all the others.
