In recent months, Nugent has been selling hats emblazoned with the words “Come And Take It”, a slogan which originated in the Texas Revolution in 1835 and is now used as a symbol of gun-rights advocates and the NRA.
“Come And Take It” lyrics:
Come and take it
Come and take it
Come and take it
Come and take it
Come and take it
Come and take it
Come and take it
Go ahead and try go ahead and die
Come and take it
Welcome back to the Concord bridge
Don’t you even try it, don’t you tread on me
You can do or die it in the land of the free
Come and take it
Come and take it
No more kings, no tyrants, no more jackboot thugs
We will unleash violence for the freedom that we love
Come and take it
Come and take it
Come and take it
Come and take it
Come and take it
Go ahead and try go ahead and die
Come and take it
Welcome back to the Concord bridge
Come and take it
Go ahead and try go ahead and die
Come and take it
Come and take it
Come and take it
Come and take it
Come and take it
Come and take it [End of lyrics]
“Feedback Grind Fire” features such lyrics as: “Tell me what you want, tell me what you need, tell me all your wildest dreams. Give me some feedback grind fire. Tell me what all of this means. Did it feel good? Did it feel right? Did I set your soul on fire? Did you fall in love? Did you live your dreams? Give me some feedback grind fire.”
Back in April, Nugent said that his next album would be titled “Handsome Devil” after a public compliment paid to him by former President Donald Trump, of whom Ted is an ardent supporter.
Nugent has repeatedly said that he is “very proud” of his new album as well as the LP’s “musical integrity and the spirit and the attitude.”
Released via Round Hill Records, “The Music Made Me Do It” was Nugent‘s first studio album in four years. Accompanying the CD was a bonus DVD, “Live At Freedom Hill”, a full-length concert captured at Freedom Hill Amphitheatre in Sterling Heights, Michigan.
