Arlington [In the Style of Trace Adkins [00:00:00]
I never thought that this is where I'd settle down[00:00:17]
I thought I'd die an old man back in my hometown[00:00:23]
They gave me this plot of land[00:00:28]
Me and some other men[00:00:31]
For a job well done[00:00:34]
There's a big white house sits on a hill just up the road[00:00:38]
The man inside he cried the day they brought me home[00:00:45]
They folded up a flag[00:00:50]
And told my mom and dad[00:00:53]
"We're proud of your son"[00:00:56]
And I'm proud to be on this peaceful piece of property[00:01:00]
I'm on sacred ground and I'm in the best of company[00:01:06]
I'm thankful for those thankful for the things I've done[00:01:13]
I can rest in peace I'm one of the chosen ones[00:01:19]
I made it to Arlington[00:01:25]
I remember Daddy brought me here when I was eight[00:01:31]
We searched all day to find out where my granddad lay[00:01:38]
When we finally found that cross[00:01:43]
He said "Son this is what it costs[00:01:46]
To keep us free"[00:01:50]
Now here I am a thousand stones away from him[00:01:54]
He recognized me on the first day I came in[00:02:00]
And it gave me a chill[00:02:05]
When he clicked his heels[00:02:09]
And saluted me[00:02:11]
And I'm proud to be on this peaceful piece of property[00:02:15]
I'm on sacred ground and I'm in the best of company[00:02:21]
And I'm thankful for those thankful for the things I've done[00:02:28]
I can rest in peace I'm one of the chosen ones[00:02:34]
I made it to Arlington[00:02:40]
And every time I hear twenty-one guns[00:02:47]
I know they brought another hero home to us[00:02:54]
We're thankful for those thankful for the things we've done[00:03:15]
We can rest in peace 'cause we are the chosen ones[00:03:21]
We made it to Arlington[00:03:27]
Yeah dust to dust[00:03:34]
Don't cry for us[00:03:37]
We made it to Arlington[00:03:42]
