In Gun He Trusts
By Elton Camp
Sam’s so sweet sugar won’t melt in his mouth
Almost all of his life he has lived in the South
Crestview Community Church is his delight
He boasts of his salvation both day and night
He says to obey the Bible when under test
But has actually read only a few parts at best
The Ten Commandments he does recommend
However, with “Thou shalt not kill” can expend
But the Second Amendment he does glorify
Just try to take his gun away and you’ll die
To Jesus, the Prince of Peace, praise he’ll sing
But to most violent ideas he continues to cling
Get him riled up and he’ll angrily say
“Mess with me and I’ll blow you away”
He wants to claim Jesus as his friend
But, on his example, doesn’t depend
For rather than turn the other cheek,
It’s his loaded gun he’ll seek
He knows his pistol’s location well
Atop a Bible he took from a motel
But try to tell him he’s making a mistake
The greatest of angry offense he’ll take
