Hank Williams Jr.

God and Guns

Last night I heard this politician

Talkin' 'bout his brand new mission

Liked his plans but they came undone

When it got around to God and guns

Well I don't know how he grew up

But it sure wasn't down at the huntin' club

'Cause if it was he'd understand

Just a little bit more about the workin' man

God and guns

Keep us strong

That's what this country was founded on

Well, we might as well give up and run

If we let 'em take our God and guns

That ain't gonna happen

Out here in my neck of the woods

Where God is great and guns are good

You really can't know that much about 'em

If you think we're better off without 'em

There was a time we ain't forgot

You could rest all night with your doors unlocked

But there ain't nobody safe no more

So you say your prayers and you thank the Lord

For that peace maker '38 in the dresser drawer

God and guns

Keep us strong

(Keep us strong)

That's what this country was founded on

Well, we might as well give up and run

If we let 'em take our God and our guns

Yeah, we might as well give up and run

If we let 'em take our God and guns

That ain't happening baby

Got a shotgun rifle and a four wheel drive

God and guns

A country boy can survive

Don't let 'em take

Don't you let 'em take

Don't let 'em take

Our God and guns

God and guns, yeah, keep us strong

That's what this country was founded on

Well, we might as well give up and run

If we let 'em take our God and guns

I don't think so
