This is meant to be the type of rock song they used to make about 10 years ago, with a political bent.
Good Guy With A Gun
lyrics by Shelton Bumgarner
@bumgarls
please give credit if you produce or perform
when the shots are fired
you tell me that more guns are the answer
but I tell you that guns aren’t the answer
no not all
we need to manage the guns we got
good guy with a gun
good guy with a gun
he’s not the answer
guns never are
we need to accept that
before another drop of blood
one day people will flee
at the drop of a hat
when guns are flooding the streets
people just blink and say
that more guns are the way
but I can’t agree
makes no sense
that pumping out guns
will fix the problem of guns
when you say we need a good guy with a gun
you make me want to puke
good guy with a gun
good guy with a gun
he’s not the answer
guns never are
we need to accept that
before another drop of blood
[bridge]
why do we talk of this at all
what’s the problem
why do have to explain
that a good guy with a gun
isn’t the answer
isn’t the answer
but people want to tell me
with a grimace
because they think the answer is clear
that a good guy with a gun
is what we need to hold dear
good guy with a gun
good guy with a gun
he’s not the answer
guns never are
we need to accept that
before another drop of blood
