Deadly Weapon

[Verse 1]
I wouldn't kick a cactus, cactus plants have thorns
I wouldn’t kick a Brahma, Brahma steers have horns
I never tease with honeybees 'cause honeybees will sting
But when I squeeze a woman I don't fear anything

[Chorus]
And yet a pretty woman is a deadly weapon
Is a deadly weapon like a gun
I know a pretty woman is a deadly weapon
But I don’t have sense enough to run

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
I wouldn't let a bobcat close enough to scratch
And when I'm near explosives I won't strike a match
I won't give a snake an even break 'cause snakes can kill you dead
But when I kiss a woman I guess I lose my head

[Chorus]
And yet a pretty woman is a deadly weapon
Is a deadly weapon like a knife
I know a pretty woman is a deadly weapon
Yet I trust a woman with my life

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
I know a pretty woman is a deadly weapon
Is a deadly weapon yes-sir-ree
But I have known a lot of pretty deadly weapons
And there's still a lot of life in me
And there's still a lot of life in me
