《Soldier’s Last Letter》歌词

[00:00:00] Soldier's Last Letter (士兵的最后一封信) - Merle Haggard (梅尔·哈格德)

[00:00:06] I'm writing this down in a trench mom

[00:00:13] Don't scold if it isn't so neat the way that you did

[00:00:25] When I was a kid and I'd come

[00:00:29] Home with mud on my feet

[00:00:36] The captain just gave us our orders

[00:00:42] And mom we will carry them through

[00:00:49] And I'll finish this letter the first chance I get

[00:00:56] But for now I'll just say I love you

[00:01:03] Then the mothers old hands began to tremble

[00:01:11] And she fought against tears in her eyes

[00:01:18] But they came unashamed for there was no name

[00:01:25] And she knew that her soldier had died

[00:01:33] Then the mother knelt down by her bedside

[00:01:40] And she prayed Lord above hear my plea

[00:01:48] And protect all the boys who are fighting tonight

[00:01:56] And dear God keep America free

[00:02:03] I'm writing this down in a trench mom

[00:02:10] Don't scold if it isn't so neat the way that you did

[00:02:21] When I was a kid and I'd come

[00:02:27] Home with mud on my feet
