|
Got struck by the first volley |
|
Of the war in the corps |
|
Never held my service |
|
Send 'em a wire, give 'em my best |
|
This ammunition never rests |
|
No one serves coffee, no one wakes up |
|
Stop breathin', stop breathin' |
|
Breathin' for me now |
|
Write it on a postcard |
|
Dad they broke me |
|
Dad they broke me |
|
Stop breathin', stop breathin' |
|
Breathin' for me now |
|
Write it on a postcard |
|
Dad they broke me |
|
Dad they broke me |
|
I can see the lines open shutters |
|
And the leaves flocked on a grid |
|
That's what they made my hero say |
|
But nothin' gets me off so completely |
|
Then when you put it down |
|
Ten feet down in the ground |
|
Call and response, negative home |
|
Stop breathin', stop breathin' |
|
Breathin' for me now |
|
Write it on a postcard |
|
Dad they broke me |
|
Dad they broke me |
|
Stop breathin', stop breathin' |
|
Breathin' for me now |
|
Write it on a postcard |
|
Dad they broke me |
