Going Down to Sing in Texas

Lyrics
I’m going down to sing in Texas Where anybody can carry a gun But we will all be so much safer there The biggest lie under the sun Go ahead and shoot me if it floats your little boat But I’ll live by my conscience even if that’s all she wrote I’m going down to sing in Texas Where anybody can carry a gun It’s been way too long comin’ But I want to thank the chicks They found out what it’s like to be a woman And defy the establishment Merle Haggard, Willie Nelson any gun in a cowboy hat Would have walked away unscathed Takin’ a stand like that Well it’s been way too long coming But I want to thank the chicks I’m so glad Jesus drove those moneychangers out of the church He did not mince his words for fear that their feelings might get hurt He spoke truth to power He stood up for the poor The church today wouldn’t even let him through the door I’m so glad Jesus drove those moneychangers out of the church
