Dylan questions: Is this what you think is important? These possessions? What about the love we had, the relationship we had? Next verse: "But whatever you want you better grab it fast." I think this is kind of a cheesy rhyme but the meaning is a warning. Most of the time, the female picked out all of the household items so she naturally wants to take them. Divorces are ugly when the couple starts dividing up the house hold possessions. Then Bart is killed by the cops.įirst verse: "You must leave now, take what you think will last." I believe this is about a breakup, maybe a divorce, but it speaks about a serious relationship that is over. At that point, "It's all over now Baby Blue". Laurie was going to shoot them but Bart instead shoots and kills Laurie to save his two friends lives. That's were we get the line "Look out the saints are comin' through". Bart friends Dave and Clyde show up to attempt to save their lives. "The highway is for gamblers, better use your sense". They travel the highways during their killing spree. "Forget the dead you've left, they will not follow you". They go on a rampage and she kills some people. Bart shoots at the matches from a distance and the bullets light each of the matches. "Strike another match." is in reference to a crown of stick matches she wears on her head as part of the act. At a carnival he meets (and ends up marrying) a sharpshooter named Annie Laurie Starr.
Eventually he ends up in the Army teaching marksmanship. He gets in trouble and is sent to reform school. "Yonder stands your orphan with his gun". In this case the character Bart Tare is an orphaned boy living in a small town and has an obsession with guns. The plot of "Gun Crazy" is sort of "Bonnie and Clyde" in nature. The song is the 1950 film noir "Gun Crazy" put to music.
