        <description><![CDATA[<p>Greetings Good People!  </p><p>This song was inspired by Netflix's "American Primeval"; a line that came up in a scene of which I couldn't resist.  Not a bad Limited Series if you like dark and gritty.  That said, any suggestions would be appreciated and helpful.  And the Southern Rock backing track is by JamTracksChannel, YouTube.  Truly wish I could sing better; off key a tad especially in the Chorus, sorry for that! 😔</p><p>And isn't it about time women celebrate good men rather than knocking them down?  I may sound husky in my voice but believe me, I never was a feminist; a bit of a tomboy at times but ALL WOMAN and a woman who appreciates good men.  They just could save this world one day.  Too much information, I know..</p><p>For a listen ===&gt; <a href="https://soundcloud.com/reneelachapelle/the-mighty-men-aint-no-sin-in" rel="nofollow noreferrer ugc">https://soundcloud.com/reneelachapelle/the-mighty-men-aint-no-sin-in</a></p><p><strong>THE MIGHTY MEN (Ain’t No Sin in That)</strong></p><p>[Intro]</p><p>Ain’t no sin in that</p><p>No, there ain’t no sin in that</p><p> </p><p>[Verse 1]</p><p>There ain’t no sin in that</p><p>Good guys with big guns</p><p>There ain’t no sin in that</p><p>Protecting the ones you love</p><p>It’s the way of the world</p><p>The way the West was won</p><p>There ain’t no sin in that</p><p>Getting the job done</p><p> </p><p>[Chorus]</p><p>The mighty men of this world</p><p>They have most of the gold</p><p>But the true mighty men of this world</p><p>Are the men no chains can hold</p><p> </p><p>[Verse 2]</p><p>A man who loves his wife</p><p>Takes a bullet for his kids</p><p>There ain’t no sin in that</p><p>Family’s all there is</p><p>It’s the way God made it</p><p>The way this world was born</p><p>There ain’t no sin it that</p><p>The way the Veil was torn</p><p> </p><p>[Chorus]</p><p>The mighty men of this world</p><p>They have most of the gold</p><p>But the true mighty men of this world</p><p>Are the men no chains can hold</p><p> </p><p>[Verse 3]</p><p>A man who provides shelter</p><p>From life’s atrocities </p><p>A man who seeks advice</p><p>Ain’t afraid to hit his knees</p><p>It’s the way of the Saints</p><p>The way God gets things done</p><p>There ain’t no sin in that</p><p>A high priest under the sun</p><p> </p><p>[Chorus]</p><p>The mighty men of this world</p><p>They have most of the gold</p><p>But the true mighty men of this world</p><p>Are the men no chains can hold</p><p> </p><p>…….Ain’t no sin in that</p><p>No, there ain’t no sin in that…….</p><p> </p><p>[Verse 1 Repeats]</p><p>There ain’t no sin in that</p><p>Good guys with big guns</p><p>There ain’t no sin in that</p><p>Protecting the ones you love</p><p>It’s the way of the world</p><p>The way the West was won</p><p>There ain’t no sin in that</p><p>Getting the job done</p><p> </p><p>[Chorus]</p><p>The mighty men of this world</p><p>They have most of the gold</p><p>But the true mighty men of this world</p><p>Are the men no chains can hold..</p><p> </p><p>© 2025 Renee La Chapelle – All Rights Reserved</p><p><br /></p><p>Backing Track by JamTracks Channel, YouTube.</p>]]>
