Soldiers Letter - Merle Haggard[00:00:01]
I'm writing this down in a trench mom[00:00:06]
Don't scold if it isn't so neat[00:00:13]
The way that you did when I was a kid[00:00:21]
And I'd come home with mud on my feet[00:00:28]
The captain just gave us our orders[00:00:36]
And Mom we will carry them through[00:00:42]
And I'll finish this letter [00:00:49]
The first chance I get[00:00:53]
But for now I'll just say I love you[00:00:56]
Then the mother's old hands began to tremble[00:01:04]
And she fought against tears in her eyes[00:01:11]
But they came unashamed[00:01:18]
Cause there was no name[00:01:22]
And she knew that her soldier had died[00:01:26]
And then she knelt down by her bedside[00:01:33]
And she prayed Lord above hear my plea[00:01:40]
Protect all the soldiers who are fighting tonight[00:01:48]
And dear God keep America free[00:01:56]
I'm writing this down in a trench mom[00:02:03]
Don't scold if it isn't so neat[00:02:11]
The way that you did when I was a kid[00:02:18]
And I'd come home with mud on my feet[00:02:26]
