Texas Lullaby (德州摇篮曲) - Aaron Watson[00:00:00]
He was just dead zet[00:00:24]
Full of fire and gasoline[00:00:27]
He was lean and mean[00:00:30]
And they called him Texas[00:00:32]
He went off to war[00:00:36]
To a far and distant shore[00:00:39]
He'd never left his home before[00:00:42]
He was from Texas[00:00:44]
As they stormed that beach one foggy summer day[00:00:48]
He said if I don't make it back promise me one thing[00:00:53]
Take me home if I die[00:00:59]
When I'm gone don't ya cry[00:01:02]
Find some shade right beside a live oak tree[00:01:05]
Sing those old songs of faith[00:01:11]
I'll fly away amazing Grace[00:01:14]
But you find comfort knowing that my soul found peace[00:01:17]
And you can bury me beneath the deep blue skies Texas[00:01:23]
Well she was just eighteen[00:01:41]
Prettiest thing he'd ever seen[00:01:44]
Like a real life beauty queen[00:01:47]
And someday she'd be his wife[00:01:49]
But for the next four years[00:01:53]
She fought back her tears[00:01:56]
While he fought back his fears[00:01:59]
Fightin' for his life[00:02:02]
And in his darkest hours[00:02:05]
Her love would bring him a light[00:02:08]
He would read her letters[00:02:11]
He would pray at night[00:02:14]
Take me home if I die[00:02:16]
When I'm gone don't ya cry[00:02:19]
Find some shade right beside a live oak tree[00:02:22]
Sing those old songs of faith[00:02:28]
I'll fly away amazing grace[00:02:31]
But you find comfort knowing that my soul found peace[00:02:34]
And you can bury me beneath the deep blue skies of Texas[00:02:40]
He always said the real heroes[00:02:46]
Never made it back home[00:02:50]
And though the war was long over[00:02:52]
You know for him it still lived on[00:02:55]
And it still lives on[00:02:59]
When he was eighty three[00:03:27]
Still full of fire and gasoline[00:03:29]
He was still lean and mean[00:03:32]
And they still called him Texas[00:03:34]
And on the day he died[00:03:38]
She was right there by his side[00:03:41]
She held his hand as she softly sang his lullaby[00:03:44]
Take me home if I die[00:03:49]
When I'm gone don't ya cry[00:03:52]
Find some shade right beside a live oak tree[00:03:55]
Sing those old songs of faith[00:04:01]
I'll fly away amazing grace[00:04:04]
But you find comfort knowing that my soul found peace[00:04:07]
And you can bury me[00:04:13]
You can bury me[00:04:16]
You can bury me beneath the deep blue skies of Texas[00:04:19]
