I'm staying here and I'm not buying a gun   I'll just take my trouble as it comes   I know you've got it in for me   But I don't give a damn   I'd rather die while trying   Than to give up who I am   Please tell everyone   I'm staying here and I'm not buying a gun      I'm staying here and I don't care who knows   No-one has the highs without the lows   I know prescriptions you can write me   For everything I need   But I don't need a band-aid, doctor   Til I start to bleed   Please tell everyone   I'm staying here and I'm not buying a gun      Come on, pilgrim   Come on, pilgrim   I'm staying here and I'm not buying a gun      I'm staying here, I hope you've got the news   You got me and someone else confused   I know you thought I'd turn and run away   When it all went wrong   But you'll be saying "so you're staying"   When I say "so long"   Please tell everyone   I'm staying here and I'm not buying a gun      Come on pilgrim   Come on pilgrim   I'm staying here and I'm not buying a gun
