(M. Knopfler)
Nobody`s got the gun
Nobody`s trying to get the drop on anyone
Nobody`s standing out on main street
With the sun blazing down
Saying There`s only room for one of us in this here town
Nobody`s got the be the number one
Nobody`s got the gun
She may not understand
And she may want you eating from her hand
If she`s got you in a corner
And you can smell the smoke and flame
You reach for your revolver
To do the same
You`ll blow your love away forever, number one
Nobody`s got the gun
You may think love is hard enough
You may never get to rehearse
And you can do without this stuff
Making everything worse
She`s just the same as you
She needs your love just like you want her to
You can`t go playing poker
With a pistol in your sleeve
You can`t make somebody love you
By threatening to leave
If you want a love forever, number one
Nobody`s got the gun
