Discover the story of the song > Bible and a 44 – Ashley McBryde

The song is about the protagonist's father figure, who had a Southern accent and was a great storyteller. He was always the last one to leave if there was trouble and he carried a Bible and a gun. He taught the protagonist important lessons, like how to hunt and to love God. The protagonist still misses him and treasures the guitar he left behind. They sing about how they don't make people like him anymore.
