Bill Osofsky songs
MY GUNS
(verse)
That Browning twenty-two I got from dad was my first gun
He taught me how to hunt with it just like I'll teach my son
The M-1 hanging on the wall my gramps took overseas
Between that gun and God's good grace he helped take Normandy
(chorus)
They're my guns, a part of our great history
They're my guns, and I believe they keep us free
In my heart I know that I'm a peaceful man
But you would have to pry them from my cold, dead hands
And I don't need to apologize to anyone....
For my guns.
(verse)
That pearly white revolver is the one I gave my wife
She holds it with her keys in that dark parking lot at night
And last year in my daughter's room I used my forty-five
To hold some creep for half and hour til the cops arrived
(chorus 2)
They're my guns, I keep them for security
Etc.
(bridge)
When trouble seeks a good man out
He deserves a chance
To run away, or plead his case
Or stay and take a stand
(chorus 3)
They're my guns, and I came by them legally
Etc.
She holds it with her car keys in the parking lot at night
And last year in my daughter's room
