- Hayloft Lyrics

My daddy's got a gun.
My daddy's got a gun.
My daddy's got a gun.
You better run.

My daddy's got a gun.
My daddy's got a gun.
My daddy's got a gun.

It started with the hayloft a-creakin'.
Yeah, it just started in the hayloft.
With his long johns on, Pop went a-creepin'
Out to the barn, out to the hay.

Young lovers and they are not sleeping.
Young lovers in the hayloft.
With his gun turned on, Pop went a-creepin'
Out to the barn up to the hay.

My daddy's got a gun.
My daddy's got a gun.
My daddy's got a gun.
You better run.

My daddy's got a gun.
My daddy's got a gun.
My daddy's got a gun.

My daddy's got a gun.
My daddy's got a gun.
My daddy's got a gun.
You better run.

My daddy's got a gun.
My daddy's got a gun.
My daddy's got a gun.

It started with the hayloft a-creakin'.
Yeah, just started in the hay.
With his long johns on, Pop went a-creepin'
Out to the barn, out to the hayloft.

Young lovers with their legs tied up in knots.
Young lovers with their legs tied up in knots.
With his long tall gun, Pop went a-creepin'.
To blow their hayloft bedheads straight off.

My daddy's got a gun.
My daddy's got a gun.
My daddy's got a gun.
You better run.

My daddy's got a gun.
My daddy's got a gun.
My daddy's got a gun.

My daddy's got a gun.
My daddy's got a gun.
My daddy's got a gun.
You better run.

My daddy's got a gun.
My daddy's got a gun.
My daddy's got a gun.

What is the meaning behind Hayloft lyrics?


When we focus on what the lyrics are trying to say, Nickel Creek's 'Hayloft' is a dark story of a father catching young lovers in a hayloft, using the metaphor 'daddy's got a gun' to symbolize his authority and control over their lives. The warning 'better run' is repeated and thus gives a feeling of danger and urgency, which underlines the power play between them and the consequences of the forbidden love. The main topics of the song are love, angst, anger, nature and resentment. At the same time, the song highlights the need for protection and the presence of danger, forbidden love and family ties and authority. The lyrics mention violence and suggestive content, especially with the references to a gun and young lovers in a possibly dangerous scenario. However, violence and adult themes, though not explicit, imply a PG-13 rating as they might not be appropriate for children under 13.
