Street Fighting Sun

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 swingin' like an old-time saloon

Had an all-day kickdown dragout fight

With the sun and his brother the moon

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

Til the sun is but a beggar throwin' 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

You ain't nothin' but a street fightin' sun

You ain't nothin' but a street fightin' sun

You ain't nothin' but a street fightin' sun

Well I woke up on the street with the shadows at my feet

Thinkin' maybe I should call it a day

Till I heard the rooster call sittin' up on the wall

I guess he had him something to say

So I wandered all around in the mountains in the dark

Gettin' silly by the light of the moon

For the sun had gone away, guess I whipped him anyway

Now I'm thinkin' that I spoke too soon

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

Til the sun is but a beggar throwin' 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

You ain't nothin' but a street fightin' sun

You ain't nothin' but a street fightin' sun

You ain't nothin' but a street fightin' sun
