Put the Gun Down
Wine-O Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ooh-oh-oh, ooh-oh-oh
Ooh-oh-oh, ooh-oh-oh

I got ten fingers to the sky
My back to the wall, my white flag high
Her lips, just like a gun
She's got silver bullets on her tongue
He's deep under her spell
I'm screamin' out, but it just won't help

I think I'm cursed
I had him first

Adeline, have mercy
You don't wanna break my heart
Take what's mine, don't hurt me
Steal my money, steal my car
Don't take my man, don't take my man
I said, don't take my man 'cause you know you can
Put the gun down
Ooh-oh-oh, ooh-oh-oh
Put the gun down
Ooh-oh-oh, ooh-oh-oh

She stole my man, took him from me
She's got crimson eyes, a screamin' body
Face is young, she must taste sweet
She drops those panties to her knees
Walkin' on my happy home
She won't give up until I'm gone

I think I'm cursed
I had him first

Adeline, have mercy
You don't wanna break my heart
Take what's mine, don't hurt me
Steal my money, steal my car
Don't take my man, don't take my man
I said, don't take my man 'cause you know you can
Put the gun down
Ooh-oh-oh, ooh-oh-oh
Put the gun down
Ooh-oh-oh, ooh-oh-oh

Put the gun down, put the gun down
Put your finger on the trigger now
Put it down
Put it down
Put it down
Put it down
Put the gun down, put the gun down
I'ma set fire to the whole damn house
Put it down
Put it down
Put it down
Put it down

Whoa, Adeline
Adeline, have mercy
You don't wanna break my heart
Take what's mine, don't hurt me
Steal my money, steal my car
Don't take my man, don't take my man
I said, don't take my man 'cause you know you can
Put the gun down
Ooh-oh-oh, ooh-oh-oh
Put the gun down
Ooh-oh-oh, ooh-oh-oh
Put the gun down
Ooh-oh-oh, ooh-oh-oh
Put the gun down




Ooh-oh-oh, ooh-oh-oh
Put the gun down

Line by Line Meaning

I got ten fingers to the sky
I am surrendering and showing that I am unarmed


My back to the wall, my white flag high
I am in a hopeless situation and just want to survive


Her lips, just like a gun
The woman has a way with words that can hurt just as much as a weapon


She's got silver bullets on her tongue
Her words are piercing and hurtful


He's deep under her spell
The man is under the woman's control and influence


I'm screamin' out, but it just won't help
My pleas are falling on deaf ears and are not making a difference


I think I'm cursed
I am feeling hopeless and doomed


I had him first
I was with the man before the other woman came along


Adeline, have mercy
I am pleading with the other woman to be kind and spare me


You don't wanna break my heart
I am asking the other woman to consider my feelings


Take what's mine, don't hurt me
If the other woman must take something, I hope it won't cause me harm


Steal my money, steal my car
I am willing to lose material possessions, but not the man I love


Don't take my man, don't take my man
I am desperately pleading for the other woman to leave my man alone


Put the gun down
I am asking the other woman to stop using her words as a weapon


She stole my man, took him from me
The other woman succeeded in taking the man I love


She's got crimson eyes, a screamin' body
The other woman is attractive, but her intentions are not pure


Face is young, she must taste sweet
The other woman's age suggests that she is inexperienced and naive


She drops those panties to her knees
The other woman uses sex to manipulate and get what she wants


Walkin' on my happy home
The other woman is disrupting my life and relationship


Put your finger on the trigger now
The woman is using her words as a weapon against me


I'ma set fire to the whole damn house
I am so angry and hurt that I am willing to destroy everything


Adeline, have mercy
I am still pleading with the other woman to show me kindness


Put the gun down
I am still asking the other woman to stop using her words as a weapon

Are you saved? Where will you go when you die? Heaven or hell?

The Gospel, which means the Good News is the news that God Almighty, the Creator came in the flesh as Jesus Christ to take away the sin of the world. The one God is a trinity of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. The Son came and laid down his own life to save ours.  His sacrifice on the cross paid the price for our redemption with his own blood. On the third day he rose from dead and offers the gift of salvation and forgiveness to those that repent and trust in him. Although God's creation was created perfect, having no death, sickness and disease, the creation became corrupted through Adam and Eve in them disobeying God. In this rebellion the creation became fallen through the curse of sin and mankind became separated from God. This world is fallen, but God offers reconciliation to him through his provision at the cross. Ultimately God will restore his creation to perfection when he returns but those that who reject his offer of redemption will remain condemned by their sins and go to hell.

John 1:1,14
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and THE WORD WAS GOD. [14] And THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH, and dwelt among us,

1 John 3:8 KJV
He that committeth sin is of the devil; for the devil sinneth from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.

Isaiah 9:6
For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty GOD, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.

John 1:10
He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and THE WORLD KNEW HIM NOT.

Mike casually grabbing his guns and treating them like the guy's toys is utterly hilarious

@DaRkLoRdZoRc

And then he just dumps them in the trash can like a teacher taking your Yugioh cards and putting them in the drawer.
