I Won'T Let Anyone Hurt You

I Won’t Let Anyone Hurt You

By Elton Camp

What else could we expect
What they love, folks protect

Most careful care they will give
To the one for whom they live

No expense is too great
To repel those with hate

If their loved one you attack
They will put you on the rack

Any means they’ll try
To prove that you lie

To the facts they’re blind
Tightly closed is their mind

Zealous love made ’em  that way
The innocent, the price must pay

No matter the harm and blight
To show such love is their right

And their rights they’ll defend
No matter how many lives end

Words of deepest love they did say
To their assault rifles from the NRA
