The Man From Uvalde
[Verse 1]
I heard the bullets fly
Teachers and children cry
Police just standin’ by
Well it makes you wonder why
Oh Lord what have they done?
I think they killed my son
I never hurt no man
But I'd strangle every one

[Chorus]
And the man from Uvalde
Has been livin’ on the run
In the valley of the gun
He's hidin’ from the sun

[Verse 2]
I heard the news man sway
They wanna take your guns away
So scared of what they say
Livin’ in the USA
You fly a blacked out rag
Deface the American Flag
Ain’t freedom such a drag
Whеn they try and change the rulеs
[Chorus]
And the man from Uvalde
Has been livin’ on the run
In the valley of the gun
He's a hidin’ from the sun

[Verse 3]
It just don’t make no sense
Hung up on self defense
Easier than a driver's test
And the ammunition’s cheap
I don't trust no talkin’ head
I don't care if you're blue or red
I just wanna keep my child
From dyin’ at his desk

[Chorus]
And the man from Uvalde
Has been livin' on the run
In the valley of the gun
He’s a hidin’ from the sun
Yeah the man from Uvalde
Has been livin’ on the run
In the valley of the gun
He's a hidin’ from the sun
