Class of 1988
Never thought you’d graduate
Playing with your guns all day
If only they could see you now
How you’ve learned to shoot so well
They wouldn’t laugh that way

Wayne you know it’s true
There’s nothing you can do
So put them guns away

All of your friends are through
They’ve given up what they tried to do
See now how happy they are
Each with a new lease on life
A brand new car, a low mileage wife
Put down them guns and fall into line

Wayne you know it’s true
There’s nothing you can do
So put them guns away
Who cares what’s wrong or right
So please give up the fight
Put them guns away

All your friends are through
There’s nothing you can do
So put them guns away

Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo...
Wayne you know you’re in too deep
All your friends have gone to sleep
Wayne you know you’re in too deep

All your friends are through
There’s nothing you can do
So put them guns away
Wayne you know it’s true
There’s nothing you can do
So put them guns away
Who cares what’s wrong or right
So please give up the fight
And put them guns away
