Nitty Gritty Dirt Band - Cupid's Got a Gun lyrics

So many lonely people looking for a way

To fill the empty nights when the phone won't ring

We all want to fall in love, hear the birds sing.

So if you're feeling desparate, don't give up

Times, they are a changing and so is your luck.

Cupid's got a gun

Arrows wouldn't do

He's got the power love for you

It's a big big love

His aim is true

Don't try to run

Cupid's got a gun.

Don't you just sit there feeling sorry for yourself

Reading romance novels and laying around the house

Dreaming that the good parts were written just for you

Then waking up saying this will never come true

Stop your hesitating go out tonight

You know he's out there waiting

To get you in his sights.

Cupid's got a gun

Arrows wouldn't do

He's got the power love for you

It's a big big love

His aim is true

Don't try to run

Cupid's got a gun.

It's a real tough job helping people fall in love

That old bow and arrow just wasn't strong enough

Cupid wasn't stupid, he knew just what to do

Now he's loaded for love,

He's coming for you.
