One hand on the Bible the other one on a gun.

 

"Which Way Are You Goin'?"

Song by Jim Croce

 

Which way are you goin'?

Which side will you be on?

Will you stand and watch while,

All the seeds of hate are sewn?

Will you stand with those who say

Let his will be done?

 

One hand on the Bible

And one hand on the gun.

One hand on the Bible

And one hand on the gun.

 

Which way are you lookin'?

Is it hard to see?

Do you say what's wrong for him

Is not wrong for me?

You walk the streets of righteousness

But you refuse to understand.

 

Say you love the baby,

And then you crucify the man.

Say you love the baby,

And then you crucify the man.

 

Every day,

Things are changing.

Words once honored turn to lies.

People wandering

Can you blame them?

It's too far to run

And too late to hide.

 

So now you turn your back on,

Everything that you used to preach.

It's let him live in freedom,

If he lives like me.

Well your light has changed,

Confusion reigns.

What have you become?

 

All your olive branches turn to spears

When your flowers turn to guns.

All your olive branches turn to spears

When your flowers turn to guns.
