...I only got my first gun, a pistol, when on summer vacation at my Uncle's place in Las Vegas when I was 21; bought it for a cross country drive back to home. Anyhow, as I said, my mom felt much the same about what is said in this song. Of course, that was only until I was in the Border Patrol - then she thought it was grand that I carried one & knew how to shoot one.
Damn, it took me all of my 69 years before I ever heard this Johnny Cash song (as best I recall) and I've been a fan of his since at least the age of 16 or 17! First time was tonight just minutes ago on Pandora. I loved it.
All the best,
Glenn B
