Lirieke: Justin McBride. Love Me If You Can.

I think sometimes war is necessary
But I pray every night for peace on Earth
I hand out my dollars to the homeless
But believe that every able soul should work

My daddy gave me my shotgun
That I'll hand down to my son
Try to teach him everything it means

I'm a man of my convictions
Call me wrong, call me right
But I bring my better angels to every fight
You may not like where I'm going
But you sure know where I stand
So hate me if you want to
But love me if you can

I stand by the right to speak freely
But I worry 'bout what kids learn from TV
And before all this debatin' turns to angry words and hate
Maybe we should just agree to disagree

And I believe that Jesus looks down here and sees us
And if you ask him he would say

I'm a man of my convictions
Call me wrong, call me right
But I bring my better angels to every fight
You may not like where I'm going
But you sure know where I stand
So hate me if you want to
But love me if you can

You may not like where I'm going
But you sure know where I stand
So go on hate me if you want to
But love me if you can
Yeah love me if you can
