Lyrics

I'm a cool 3 lbs of cold blue steel
I shoot even better than the way I feel
Made to fit right in your hand
Why I'll never understand
I could've been hammered or a railroad spike
I could've been a train rolling through the night
But they gave my voice such a terrible sound
That I wish they'd left me in the ground
I'm a peacemaker
Don't know how I got my name
I'm a peacemaker
If I don't deserve the credit
Why do I deserve the blame?
When the lion lays down with the lamb
Then you won't find me in nobody's hand
Till that time I will remain
Till the sinners lay down with the saints
I'm a peacemaker
Don't know how I got my name
I'm a peacemaker
If I don't deserve the credit
Why do I deserve the blame?
I'm a peacemaker
Don't know how I got my name
I'm a peacemaker
If I don't deserve the credit
Why do I deserve the blame?
I'm a cool 3 lbs of cold blue steel
I shoot even better than the way I feel
