Ini Kamoze - Gunshot
Run for cover
Gunshot respect not, boom
Gunshot it no respect notch
Shot respect not
Gunshot it no respect notch
Now cats and dogs and "men and people"
For some it's good and some stupid evil
For Kings and Queens and El Presidente
Or a passer-by and spy, oh
Could wind up in a cemetery
Gunshot respect not, boom
Gunshot it no respect notch
Shot respect not
Gunshot it no respect notch
Hey, don't know what a bullet won't do
Hey
Even a minister and the sinister
A marine of Brigadista
Some win, some lose, hey
Some skip across the border
When men were bold, this thing wasn't plenty
Now that heaven and earth are old, hey
One fool makes many
Gunshot respect not, skeng-eh
Gunshot it no respect notch
Shot respect not
Gunshot it no respect notch
Aw, aw, aw
Run for cover
I don't know what the bullet won't do
Follow you 'round the corner
Follow you across the border
When it hits it hurts
Throw you down in the dirt
They have to cover you with earth
Hey, hey, hey..
Tear drops like rain, whoa
Even a minister and the sinister, hey
A marine of Brigadista
Some win, some lose, hey
Some skip across the border
When men were bold, this killing wasn't plenty
Now that heaven and earth are old, hey
One fool makes many
Gunshot respect not, skeng-eh
Gunshot it no respect notch
Shot respect not
Gunshot it no respect notch
Aw, aw, aw
Run for cover
Don't know what a bullet won't do
Hey
I don't know what a bullet won't do
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Follow you 'round the corner
Follow you across the border
Tracks you down to your mother
Running you down into the streets and lanes
Hits the juice out of your veins, hey, hey
I don't know what a bullet won't do
Hey, hey, hey, hey
I don't know what a bullet won't do
Hey
Gunshot respect not, skeng-eh
Gunshot it no respect notch
Shot respect not
Gunshot it no respect notch
Aw, aw, aw
