I'm Staying Here Lyrics - John Wesley Harding

I'm staying here and I'm not buying a gun 

I'll just take my trouble as it comes 

I know you've got it in for me 

But I don't give a damn 

I'd rather die while trying 

Than to give up who I am 

Please tell everyone 

I'm staying here and I'm not buying a gun 

I'm staying here and I don't care who knows 

No-one has the highs without the lows 

I know prescriptions you can write me 

For everything I need 

But I don't need a band-aid, doctor 

Til I start to bleed 

Please tell everyone 

I'm staying here and I'm not buying a gun 

Come on, pilgrim 

Come on, pilgrim 

I'm staying here and I'm not buying a gun 

I'm staying here, I hope you've got the news 

You got me and someone else confused 

I know you thought I'd turn and run away 

When it all went wrong 

But you'll be saying "so you're staying" 

When I say "so long" 

Please tell everyone 

I'm staying here and I'm not buying a gun
