lyrics

Half Cocked
©Jerry Axson

Little boy came running into the house,
cried out "Hey Daddy tell me what's this about?"
the little girl next door - she has gave me a kiss,
I don't want to go off half cocked but what have I missed?
I don't want to go off half cocked - but what have I missed???

Cowboys, Indians, the little girl, and me,
I was a brave Ranger while she kept the Teepee,
in later years my sins did take me away,
never meant to go off half cocked and now I must pay -
never meant to go off half cocked - and now I must pay...

It's time to wake up...
to rise and meet this day...
I'm not the man you fell in love with...
you're not the little girl... who gave that kiss away...

This boy has laid down deep in your arms,
I've tasted your lips and you drank from my charms,
Cowboys, Indians, and how the west was won,
I don't want to go off half cocked, my eyes to the sun,
I don't want to go off half cocked......
