The Day I Shot You With the BB Gun
Luke wrote this nostalgic tale about one of his kids, but more than that, it reflects on the
parental responsibilities and struggles of bringing our children up in the nurture
and admonition of the Lord.
You were seven years old the day that you moved in
Pigtails and homemade dresses, a little tantrum now and then
Of all the memories that I have this is my favorite one
It was the day that I shot you with the BB gun
Well it started all because you would not take a bath
When I threatened to do it you looked at me and you laughed
But you stopped laughin when I aimed and said you'd better run
Cause I'm gonna shoot you with the BB gun
The Bible says if you love'em you should beat'em with a rod
Cause it will drive away the devil and turn them back to God
I have found another way to get the job done
Watch'em scatter when you pull out the BB gun
I wasn't lying when I said I had checked it before
I really thought it wasn't loaded when you opened the door
But I'd be lying if I said that I didn't have fun
That day when I shot you with the BB gun
The Bible says if you love'em you should beat'em with a rod
Cause it will drive away the devil and turn them back to God
I have found another way to get the job done
Watch'em scatter when you pull out the bb gun
You know there will come a day when your kids can out run
you, that's when you might need a bb gun
Of all the memories that I have this is my favorite one
It was the day that I shot you with the bb gun
