It’s Not the Guns Lyrics by Gary S. Paxton

The Adventures of Dr. Redempto

0

A gun never shot anybody, no trigger ever pulled itself
No bullet ever jumped in a chamber, no rifle ever hopped off a shelf
No handgun ever drove to a schoolyard, no rifle ever held a grudge
It always takes the act of a human to shoot or maim or kill in cold blood

It's not the guns that's causin' this destruction
It ain't the guns, they're just a piece of wood and steel
It's not the guns, it's humans with no conscience
It ain't the guns, it's people that can't feel
No, it's not the guns, it's humans who can't feel

We've still got the Second Amendment, thank God for whose fightin' for that
But if we don't get in this battle, we'll get another [?] trap
And soon it's gonna be confiscation, it's Hitler all over again
They'll find out where they're at, then they'll take them all away
But we just can't let those globalists win

It's not the guns that's causin' this destruction
It ain't the guns, they're just a piece of wood and steel
It's not the guns, it's humans with no conscience
It ain't the guns, it's people that can't feel
No, it's not the guns, it's people that can't feel

It's not the guns, it's people that can't feel
