Kiss - Love Gun - Meaning of the song
The title song has been played on every Kiss tour since its release. Stanley has cited it as one of his favorite Kiss songs. It was the first song that Stanley wrote, arranged and produced in its entirety.
The song shares many of its lyrics with "The Hunter", written by Booker T. & the M.G.'s, and recorded by Albert King, Ike and Tina Turner, Blue Cheer, and Free. In his autobiography Face the Music, Stanley acknowledges the derivation:
"I stole the idea of a 'love gun' from Albert King's version of 'The Hunter,' which Zeppelin also nicked from for 'How Many More Times' on their first album."
Love gun - Lyrics
I really love you, baby
I love what you've got
Let's get together, we can
Get hot
No more tomorrow, baby
Time is today
Girl, I can make you feel
OK
No place for hiding, baby
No place to run
You pull the trigger of my
Love gun (love gun), love gun
Love gun (love gun), love gun
You can't forget me, baby
Don't try to lie
You'll never leave me, mama
So don't try
I'll be a gambler, baby
Lay down the bet
We get together, mama
You'll sweat
No place for hiding, baby
No place to run
You pull the trigger of my
Love gun (love gun), love gun
Love gun (love gun), love gun
Love gun, love gun
Love gun (love gun), love gun
Love gun (love gun)
Love gun (love gun), love gun
Love gun (love gun), love gun
Love gun (love gun)
Love gun (love gun)
Love gun (love gun)
Love gun (love)
