God & 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 & guns

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 & 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 & guns

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

Oh, 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 in the dresser drawer

God & guns keep us strong

That's what this country, Lord, was founded on

Well, we might as well give up and run

If we let 'em take our God & guns

Yeah, we might as well give up and run

If we let 'em take our God & guns

Yeah, oh, God & guns

Don't let 'em take

Don't you let 'em take

Don't let 'em take our God & guns

Oh, God & guns, yeah, keep us strong

That's what this country, Lord, was founded on

Well, we might as well give up and run

If we let 'em take our God & guns

God & guns
