Dress Blues歌詞

[00:00.00] 作曲 : Jason Isbell
[00:12.45]What can you see from your window
[00:18.12]I can't see anything from mine
[00:23.16]Flags on the side of the highway
[00:28.35]And scripture on grocery store signs
[00:34.48]Maybe eighteen was too early
[00:39.09]Maybe thirty or forty is too
[00:45.18]Did you get your chance to make peace with the man
[00:49.88]Before he sent down his angels for you
[00:56.27]Mamas and grandmamas love you
[01:01.63]'Cause that's all they know how to do
[01:05.81]
[01:07.65]You never planned on the bombs in the sand
[01:11.81]Or sleeping in your dress blues
[01:16.62]
[01:28.90]Your wife said this all would be funny
[01:32.04]
[01:34.48]When you came back home in a week
[01:39.70]You'd turn twenty-two and we'd celebrate you
[01:44.54]In a bar or a tent by the creek
[01:50.84]Your baby would just about be here
[01:55.93]Your very last tour would be up
[02:01.62]But you won't be back They're all dressing in black
[02:06.32]Drinking sweet tea in styrofoam cups
[02:12.48]Mamas and grandmamas love you
[02:18.08]American boys hate to lose
[02:23.34]You never planned on the bombs in the sand
[02:28.20]Or sleeping in your dress blues
[02:45.36]Now the high school gymnasium's ready
[02:50.24]Full of flowers and old legionnaires
[02:55.28]
[02:56.29]Nobody showed up to protest
[03:01.02]Just sniffle and stare
[03:05.65]
[03:06.68]But there's red white and blue in the rafters
[03:11.95]And there's silent old men from the corps
[03:18.06]What did they say when they shipped you away
[03:22.59]To fight somebody's Hollywood war
[03:29.04]Nobody here could forget you
[03:34.20]You showed us what we had to lose
[03:39.73]You never planned on the bombs in the sand
[03:44.44]Or sleeping in your dress blues
[03:50.75]No no you never planned on the bombs in the sand
[03:55.51]Or sleeping in your dress blues
