So the air's gettin' colder
|
||
|
And the news keeps us scared
|
||
|
I still wrestle this summer
|
||
|
From the bones of our tired, blistered hands
|
||
|
'Cause tonight we got drinks
|
||
|
With just a couple of friends
|
||
|
And the girl that my brother likes is finally talkin' to him
|
||
|
And his chest is all swelled like he's proud and happy
|
||
|
Like he's got a great idea
|
||
|
Like he's makin' a memory
|
||
|
|
||
|
Wake up
|
||
|
And come out to the car
|
||
|
There's an east swell comin'
|
||
|
And it's howlin' offshore
|
||
|
And we'll be
|
||
|
Lyin' like lions out in the sand
|
||
|
But I'll be dead before you put a gun in my brother's hands
|
||
|
|
||
|
So we make jokes back home
|
||
|
And we lighten the mood
|
||
|
But growing up my parents saw
|
||
|
What sending a kid to fight can really do
|
||
|
And now with the war, I can tell they're a little shook up
|
||
|
'Cause just a few mothers' sons will never really be enough
|
||
|
Not till half of our names are etched out in the wall
|
||
|
And the other half ruined from the things we saw
|
||
|
|
||
|
Wake up
|
||
|
And come out to the car
|
||
|
There's an east swell comin'
|
||
|
And it's howlin' offshore
|
||
|
And we'll be
|
||
|
Lyin' like lions out in the sand
|
||
|
But I'll be dead before you put a gun in my brother's hands
|
||
|
|
||
|
Wake up
|
||
|
And come out to the car
|
||
|
There's an east swell comin'
|
||
|
And it's howlin' offshore
|
||
|
And we'll be
|
||
|
Lyin' like lions out in the sand
|
||
|
But I'll be dead before you put a gun in my brother's hands
