I'd Like to Take You Out Tonight

I'd like to take you out tonight.
Just you and me alone.
Let you lean against my arm,
as we wander far from home.

We'll find a quiet place
far away from town.
Let me give you a squeeze.
Let's shoot those stars right down.

I cannot wait to be alone
on some secluded hill.
Let's shoot it from the hips.
There can be no finer thrill.

To have you by my side,
resting in my hands.
No one who hasn't felt your touch
can understand.

You take me to heaven.
My A K forty seven!
You are the only one,
only you my gun.

Bridge:
Other guns might try to please,
pull me from our memories.
For a moment I might stray,
But back to you love leads the way.

I know that you shall always be
the only one.
I can't imagine ever trying
another gun.

When you're by my side
I always feel secure.
I have a right to you
that always must endure.

You take me to heaven.
My A K forty seven!
You are the only one,
only you my gun.
