Sometimes think the war is necessary Every night I pray for peace on earth And I hand down my dollars to the homeless But believe that every able soul should work
[Pre Chorus]
My father gave me my shotgun That I'll hand down to my son Try to teach him everything it means
[Chorus]
I'm a man of my convictions Call me wrong, call me right But I bring my better angels to every fight You may not like where I'm goin' But you sure know where I stand Hate me if you want to Love me if you can
[Verse 2]
I stand by my right to speak freely But I worry 'bout what kids learn from TV And before all of debatin' turns to angry words and hate Sometimes we should just agree to disagree
[Pre Chorus]
And I believe that Jesus Looks down here and sees us And if you ask him, he would say.
