A country song lyric (1995)

 My momma told me when I was young,
"You gotta use your mind like a loaded gun,
cause there's a million cowboys in this land
who'll shoot ya in the back soon as shake ya hand."

My poppa said, "Hey listen, son,
You'll never ride a hoss to the horizon.
Be wise to the poker and the women and the drink -
you can lead a man to whisky, but you can't make him think."

But I never listened to the Man In Black when he said:
"Don't take your guns to town, boy,

leave them guns at home".
