Under My Pillow

He keeps a gun under his pillow To give both peace and ease to his soul, Up and down in comfort his chest does billow Into a dreamworld he then does frantically patrol. His gun is under his pillow on his bed He dreams about carrying his Smith & Wesson, In the the papers it reads of terror and dread So, now he's prepared to teach a lesson. His gun is his protection and his belief He is always prepared for all terror and fright, It protects him from all worries and grief The devil or sinners might visit him tonight. Those who live by the sword will die by the sword That story unto me was once told, So, I place my faith Jesus Christ my Lord And his love and protection for me I will forever cherish and hold. I go to sleep peacefully after saying my prayer I too have read of hate, murder and robbery and treason, With me I am never alone or unprotected there Under my pillow I have my Bible for the same reason.
