|
It's all behind |
|
It's time to rest |
|
Time to die |
|
Light, the morning light filled your sky |
|
Silver wings you made to fly |
|
The things you saw that made you cry |
|
Never ever thought you would die |
|
Was a time you were you and strong |
|
Didn't fear any man |
|
You ruled the day |
|
It's time to rest |
|
Your race is run |
|
You gave your best |
|
Light, the morning light filled your sky |
|
Silver wings you made to fly |
|
The things you saw that made you cry |
|
Never ever thought you would die |
|
Was a time you were you and strong |
|
Didn't fear any man |
|
You ruled the day |
|
Back to back we stand with one other |
|
Wasn't anyone alive who could make us run for cover |
|
Nor could break my land |
|
Rain didn't come but we could haul and make a living |
|
You'd never hear a moan we just took what we was given |
|
We came through all the same |
|
Was a time you were you and strong |
|
Didn't fear any man |
|
You ruled the day |
|
You had the bed and the women who were willing |
|
There was blood on the land we hung a man for killing |
|
Hung his neck till he went blue |
|
Ice cold night when I lost my only woman |
|
For the pas ten years I feel my time-a-coming |
|
I came through all the same |
|
Lord, I'm seeing your arms reaching down for me |
