《8th Of November》歌词

[00:00:00] 8th Of November - Big & Rich

[00:00:20] Said goodbye to his momma

[00:00:23] As he left South Dakota

[00:00:25] To fight for the Red White and Blue

[00:00:29] He was nineteen and green with a new M-16

[00:00:33] Just doin' what he had to do

[00:00:37] He was dropped in the jungle

[00:00:40] Where the choppers would rumble

[00:00:42] With the smell of napalm in the air

[00:00:46] Then the sergeant said "Look up ahead"

[00:00:55] Like a dark evil cloud 1200 came down

[00:00:59] On him and 29 more

[00:01:03] They fought for their lives

[00:01:05] But most of them died

[00:01:07] In the 173rd Airborne

[00:01:11] On the 8th of November

[00:01:14] The angels were cryin'

[00:01:15] As they carried his brothers away

[00:01:20] With the fire rainin' down

[00:01:22] And the hell all around

[00:01:24] There were few men left standin' that day

[00:01:28] Saw the eagle fly through a clear blue sky

[00:01:33] 1965 the 8th of November

[00:01:45] Now he's 58 and his pony tail's gray

[00:01:50] But the battle still plays in his head

[00:01:54] He limps when he walks

[00:01:56] But he's strong when he talks

[00:01:58] 'Bout the shrapnel they left in his leg

[00:02:02] He puts on a gray suit

[00:02:04] Over his Airborne tattoo

[00:02:07] And he ties it on one time a year

[00:02:11] And remembers that fallen

[00:02:13] As he orders a tall one

[00:02:15] And swallows it down with his tears

[00:02:19] On the 8th of November

[00:02:21] The angels were cryin'

[00:02:23] As they carried his brothers away

[00:02:27] With the fire rainin' down

[00:02:30] And the hell all around

[00:02:32] There were few men left standin' that day

[00:02:36] Saw the eagle fly through a clear blue sky

[00:02:41] 1965 the 8th of November

[00:02:55] 8th of November

[00:02:57] (8th of November)

[00:03:03] Said goodbye to his Momma

[00:03:06] As he left South Dakota

[00:03:08] To fight for the Red White and Blue

[00:03:12] He was nineteen and green with a new M-16

[00:03:16] Just doin' what he had to do
