Til the Last Shot's Fired - Midday Sun[00:00:00]
I was there in the winter of 64[00:00:13]
When we camped in the ice at Nashville's door[00:00:19]
Three hundred miles our trail had lead[00:00:24]
We barely had time to bury our dead[00:00:30]
When the Yankees charged and the colors fell[00:00:36]
Overton Hill was a living hell[00:00:42]
When we called retreat it was almost dark[00:00:47]
I died with a grape shot in my heart[00:00:53]
Say a prayer for peace for every fallen son[00:00:59]
Set my spirit free let me lay down my gun[00:01:11]
Sweet Mother Mary I'm so tired[00:01:24]
But I can't come home till the last shot's fired[00:01:30]
In June of 1944[00:01:39]
I waited in the blood of Omaha's shores[00:01:44]
Twenty-one and scared to death[00:01:50]
My heart pounding in my chest[00:01:56]
I almost made the first sea wall[00:02:01]
When my friends turned and saw me fall[00:02:07]
I still smell the smoke I can taste the mud[00:02:12]
As I lay there dying from a loss of blood[00:02:18]
Say a prayer for peace for every fallen son[00:02:24]
Set my spirit free let me lay down my gun[00:02:37]
Sweet Mother Mary I'm so tired[00:02:49]
But I can't come home till the last shot's fired[00:02:55]
I'm in the fields of Vietnam[00:03:01]
The mountains of Afghanistan[00:03:04]
I'm still hoping waiting praying[00:03:07]
I did not die in vain[00:03:11]
Say a prayer for peace for every fallen son[00:03:16]
Set our spirits free let us lay down our guns[00:03:28]
Sweet Mother Mary we're so tired[00:03:41]
But we can't come home till the last shot's fired[00:03:47]
Till the last shot's fired[00:03:54]
Say a prayer for peace for peace[00:04:05]
For our daughters and our sons[00:04:11]
Set our spirits free set us free[00:04:18]
Let us lay down our guns[00:04:23]
Sweet Mother Mary we're so tired[00:04:31]
But we can't come home[00:04:36]
No we can't come home till the last shot's fired[00:04:38]
