My granddaddy was a hunter,
he owned a long shot gun.
Hunted when he was hungry,
He was proud of where he came from.
Don't tell me you know what it's like,
you ain't never owned a gun.
Daddy was born on a small farm,
Learned to hunt with a .22
And they were poor, but they had love
You don't know how it was back then
You ain't never owned a gun
He was straight as a preacher
Said, son, I'm gonna teach you
You gotta learn to put it straight,
never put it at number one
Maybe you don't understand,
you ain't never on the gun
Born and raised in a small town,
Headed out on a hunting trip in 1975,
don't you tell me you walked in my shoes
You ain't never owned a gun
he was straight as a bridge
he said son I'm gonna teach you
You gotta learn to point it straight,
Maybe you don't understand,
you ain't never on the gun
Maybe you don't understand,
you ain't never on the gun
