My Home
It's silent over the range tonight,
quiet as the cattle roam.
Occasional gunshots in the distance,
home sweet home.
Men with intent to **** lurk,
out in the woods, miles away.
Me, I wait here with my gun,
and it's here I plan to stay.
I remember when the soldiers came,
told me if I stayed I'd die.
Told me they'd **** me if they could,
I'd like to see them try.
Because this is my home,
I stand strong for my flag.
And I ain't goin' home,
till those ******* leave in a body bag.
So let them come and **** me,
let them desecrate my body.
But they won't desecrate my home,
my country.
