The Pucks: Music
Rifle and a Bible
()
Murray Gable
I wrote this song in Nashville. I simply felt that there are people the world over struggling with this situation.
A Rifle and The Bible
I got a rifle and the Bible
Resting on the shelf
One way or another
I’m gonna save myself
I put my faith in Jesus and I keep the action clean
I believe in a rifle and the Bible
I got the Bible from my Mama
She said live in the light
I got the rifle from my daddy
He said trust the open sights
I was raised a peaceful man who ain’t afraid to fight
I believe in a rifle and the Bible
I know this paradise is promised to the meek
I don’t believe in war
I just can’t see how I can turn the other cheek
When there’s a devil at my door
I got a rifle and the Bible
I wish it made more sense
Sometimes I’m afraid that I’m just
Sitting on a fence
Sweet Jesus take away this need for self defense
I believe, I believe, I believe in a rifle and the Bible
I believe, I believe, I believe in a rifle and the Bible
