Stick to your guns

On a New York subway late one night
4 young men thought the time was right
to rob a lone man of his pride and cash
but he pulled a gun and took a stand
they got scared and they started to run
Bernard Goetz pulled the trigger of his gun
now he's a victim of the law
that should have been there to protect his rights
CHORUS
Stick to your guns - don't let'em put down
Stick to your guns - don't ever let them put you down
Now he's in court being sued by his attacker
a violent young man with a criminal record
the court found Goetz guilty as charged
and on that day I lost respect for the law
so if you're attacked, aim for their heads
coz they can't sue you if their fuckin' dead
CHORUS
