Veteran's Day - Darden Smith[00:00:01]

It's Veteran's Day I hear the drums a beatin'[00:00:15]

And I ain't gonna make the parade[00:00:19]

Cuz it's the great world war[00:00:22]

Nobody gives a goddam[00:00:24]

About the one's who wore the blue and grey[00:00:27]

Look here it just turned 19 and 25[00:00:32]

And I'm sure these boys did their mother's proud[00:00:36]

But I was loyal to my native soil[00:00:39]

And I'm a war relic now[00:00:45]

So who wore blue and who wore grey[00:00:50]

It gets kinda vague as the memories fade[00:00:54]

But we fought like cats fought like dogs[00:00:57]

And they filled our boys full of lead[00:01:01]

And there's rows and rows of crosses for those[00:01:10]

Who died at Bullrun and Shenandoah[00:01:13]

And I still hear the canon[00:01:16]

See the bullet whizzin'[00:01:19]

My lungs are filled with powder smoke[00:01:22]

You know when men stop talking with bayonets and bullets[00:01:27]

Their words will be worth their weight in lead[00:01:31]

And look at all these widows who wouldn't sit crying[00:01:34]

Who fought it out between themselves[00:01:38]

So who wore blue and who wore grey[00:01:45]

Gets kinda a vague as the memory fades[00:01:49]

But we fought like cats fought like dogs[00:01:52]

And they filled our britches full of lead[00:01:56]

That son bitch Sherman he burned my farm[00:02:01]

His soldiers stole my woman away[00:02:06]

One of 'em took her body like a child takes candy[00:02:08]

She's a broke woman now[00:02:14]

But when she killed that yankee with a pitchfork there[00:02:19]

She buried him she even said a prayer[00:02:23]

Then she spit on his grave[00:02:25]

Cursed Abe Lincoln[00:02:28]

She kept his gold watch for a souvenir[00:02:31]

So who wore blue and who wore grey[00:02:37]

Gets kinda a vague as the memories fades[00:02:40]

But we fought like cats fought like dogs[00:02:44]

And they filled our asses full of lead[00:02:48]

But there's church bells chiming through the heart of Dixie[00:02:56]

Has Jefferson Davis risen from the dead[00:03:00]

Oh no it's just Veteran's Day[00:03:03]

You know I hate it when I lose my head[00:03:09]

See it's Veteran's Day[00:03:14]

I hear the drums a beatin'[00:03:15]

And I ain't gonna make the parade[00:03:19]

Cuz it's the great world war[00:03:21]

Nobody gives a goddam[00:03:23]

About the one's who wore the blue and grey[00:03:27]

So who wore blue and who wore grey[00:03:32]

Gets kinda a vague as the memories fade[00:03:36]

But we fought like cats fought like dogs[00:03:39]

And they filled our britches full of lead[00:03:43]

Just bury me deep in a field of cotton[00:03:48]

Look away[00:03:53]

Say bury me deep I've been forgotten[00:03:55]

Won't yah please look away[00:04:01]

I say bury me deep in a field of cotton[00:04:06]
