Poco - Under The Gun Lyrics






Now and then you see me falling, way behind the things I need to do
Don't you believe I've missed my calling, I'm just the one to play your fool

[Chorus:]
Under the gun, under the gun, I'm down and crawlin' like I've never done
Under the gun, under the gun, standing in my own way and nowhere to run

Waited so long it felt like a lifetime and looking up just seemed so far away
Between these walls I live on the bottom line
It's just enough to get me through the day

[Chorus]

Now and then you see me falling, way behind the things I need to do
Don't you believe I've missed my calling, I'm just the one to play your fool

[Chorus x2]

    My Father Used to play this Track a lot back in the late 70's And most of the 80's. After Work and it always stayed with me. Brings back Memories when he was Alive. Vic. ....

  3. A.... O....

    Why can't I find 'A Fool's Paradise', off this album? I've tried all venues on internet, and cannot find it anywhere

  4. j.... ....

    Sorry all you later Poco fans, Pickin up the Pieces, Good Feeling, and From the Inside are the quintessential Poco Albums.

    This song is shit

    I like it but the album was pretty much a flop. Didn't chart well at all.

    P.... S....

    @Kassandra Tarbell well that's just like your opinion, man. There's a whole lot of us that think song is THE SHIT!

  12. M.... J....

    Their strongest studio album ever, in my humble opinion.  Check out the acoustic version of Under the Gun on Bareback at Big Sky. Its on iTunes. 

    M.... J....

    I concur you brother...

    M.... J....

    Best Poco studio album? Probably Cantamos. Crazy Eyes a close second.

  17. J.... M....

    Awesome song, Awesome group!!!! This should have way more than 7,014 views!!!
    These guys were fantastic!!!! Got through the high school years listening to this kind of stuff!!!!

  18. j.... ....

    I haven't heard this number in about 30 years. I'm 11 years old again! 1980 produced some great stuff--and not just the punk, new wave and new metal, either. Established artists like Poco, Rossington-Collins Band ('Don't Misunderstand Me'), Bob Seger (Against The Wind), Eric Clapton (Just One Night), Rolling Stones and Black Sabbath pulled off some nice stuff that year. It was a pleasant change from the cheesy disco that had been dominating radio for the previous 3 years.

  19. 1.... ....

    A great song! Period!

  20. T.... H....

    About as good as it can get!

  21. s.... ....

    Paul Cotton is fantastic, as per usual. Ditto the group as a whole. Very few artists make music of Poco's quality anymore.

  22. g.... ....

    I had this album-exceptional!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  23. m.... ....

    rocker53zero,another great one I missed,thank you ♥

    m.... ....

    Best band ever

  24. b.... ....
