作曲 : Keelaghan | |
My name is Dodge but then you know that | |
It's written on the chart there at the foot end of the of the bed | |
They think I'm blind that I can't read it | |
I've read it every word and every word it says is death | |
So confession Is that the reason that you came | |
Get it off my chest before I check out of the game | |
Since you mention it well there's thirteen things I'll name | |
Thirteen crosses high above the cold Missouri waters | |
August 49 North Montana | |
The hottest day on record the forest tinder dry | |
Lightning strikes in the mountains | |
I was crew chief at the jump base | |
I prepared the boys to fly | |
Pick the drop zone C47 comes in low | |
Feel the tap upon your leg that tells you go | |
See the circle of the fire down below | |
Fifteen of us dropped above the cold Missouri waters | |
Gauged the fire I'd seen bigger | |
So I ordered them to side hill we'd fight it from below | |
We'd have our backs to the river | |
We'd have it licked by morning even if we took it slow | |
But the fire crowned jumped the valley just ahead | |
There was no way down headed for the ridge instead | |
Too big to fight it we'd have to fight that slope instead | |
Flames one step behind above the cold Missouri waters | |
Sky had turned red smoke was boiling | |
Two hundred yards to saftey | |
Death was fifty yards behind | |
I don't know why I just thought it | |
I struck a match to waist high grass running out of time | |
Tried to tell them step into this fire I've set | |
We can't make it this is the only chance you'll get | |
But they cursed me | |
Ran for the rocks above instead | |
I lay face down and prayed above the cold Missouri waters | |
Then when I rose like the phoenix | |
In that world reduced to ashes | |
There was none but two survived | |
I stayed that night and one day after | |
Carried bodies to the river | |
Wondering how I stayed alive | |
Thirteen stations of the cross to mark their fall | |
I've had my say I'll confess to nothing more | |
I'll join them now those that they left me long before | |
Thirteen crosses high above the cold Missouri waters |
