I've got a little bitty gun on the table
Right by my little bitty bed
Though it's really very cute
How you hold the thing to shoot
Is too much for my little bitty head
I love my little bitty pistol
It's the pride of my little bitty room
And the gun shoots little bitty bullets
When the little bitty gun goes 'boom'
How I love my husband, he takes care of me
He'll take care of all of you - you'll just wait and see
When he has to go away, nights are long and black
If the bad man comes around I'll shoot his lights out, Jack
I've got a little bitty gun on the table
Right by my little bitty bed
Though it's really very cute
How you hold the thing to shoot
Is too much for my little bitty head
I love my little bitty pistol
It's the pride of my little bitty room
And the gun shoots little bitty bullets
When the little bitty gun goes 'boom'
Now we're in the White House, won't we dance till dawn
Turning loose some Welfare folks on the White House lawn
You bring your little pistol, I'll bring my pistol, too
We'll fire our pistols at their feet - they'll dance for me and you
I've got a little bitty gun on the table
Right by my little bitty bed
Though it's really very cute
How you hold the thing to shoot
Is too much for my little bitty head
I love my little bitty pistol
It's the pride of my little bitty room
And the gun shoots little bitty bullets
When the little bitty gun goes 'boom'
Right by my little bitty bed
Though it's really very cute
How you hold the thing to shoot
Is too much for my little bitty head
I love my little bitty pistol
It's the pride of my little bitty room
And the gun shoots little bitty bullets
When the little bitty gun goes 'boom'
How I love my husband, he takes care of me
He'll take care of all of you - you'll just wait and see
When he has to go away, nights are long and black
If the bad man comes around I'll shoot his lights out, Jack
I've got a little bitty gun on the table
Right by my little bitty bed
Though it's really very cute
How you hold the thing to shoot
Is too much for my little bitty head
I love my little bitty pistol
It's the pride of my little bitty room
And the gun shoots little bitty bullets
When the little bitty gun goes 'boom'
Now we're in the White House, won't we dance till dawn
Turning loose some Welfare folks on the White House lawn
You bring your little pistol, I'll bring my pistol, too
We'll fire our pistols at their feet - they'll dance for me and you
I've got a little bitty gun on the table
Right by my little bitty bed
Though it's really very cute
How you hold the thing to shoot
Is too much for my little bitty head
I love my little bitty pistol
It's the pride of my little bitty room
And the gun shoots little bitty bullets
When the little bitty gun goes 'boom'

Era la fine del 1980. Ronald Reagan stava stravincendo le elezioni presidenziali. John Lennon era stato appena ammazzato a New York e la futura first lady Nancy Reagan, con rara sensibilità, rivelava alla stampa che, come ogni buon americano, anche lei dormiva con una pistola nel comodino… “E’ solo una piccola, tenera pistola”, dichiarò ridendo.
Suo marito, prima durante e dopo i suoi mandati, contrastò fieramente ogni progetto di limitazione alla libera vendita di ogni tipo di arma sul suolo degli States ed fu, insieme ai Bush, un grande sponsor della lobby dei fabbricanti d’armi, rappresentata dalla National Rifle Association. Bisogna inoltre ricordare che anche nel 1999, in occasione della strage alla Columbine High School a Denver in Colorado, un altro vecchio attore hollywoodiano, Charlton Heston, mostrò una sensibilità analoga a quella di Nancy e suo marito… Heston, portavoce della NRA, non si fece scrupolo a presiedere il congresso dell’associazione proprio a Denver, a pochi giorni da quel massacro nel corso del quale 13 ragazzi erano stati uccisi da due loro compagni minorenni, poi suicidatisi, che si erano armati di mitragliette e granate acquistandole liberamente su internet e negli stores locali…
