《Dress Blues》歌词

[00:00:03] Dress Blues - Jason Isbell

[00:00:12] What can you see from your window

[00:00:18] I can't see anything from mine

[00:00:23] Flags on the side of the highway

[00:00:28] And scripture on grocery store signs

[00:00:34] Maybe eighteen was too early

[00:00:39] Maybe thirty or forty is too

[00:00:45] Did you get your chance to make peace with the man

[00:00:49] Before he sent down his angels for you

[00:00:56] Mamas and grandmamas love you

[00:01:01] 'Cause that's all they know how to do

[00:01:07] You never planned on the bombs in the sand

[00:01:11] Or sleeping in your dress blues

[00:01:28] Your wife said this all would be funny

[00:01:34] When you came back home in a week

[00:01:39] You'd turn twenty-two and we'd celebrate you

[00:01:44] In a bar or a tent by the creek

[00:01:50] Your baby would just about be here

[00:01:55] Your very last tour would be up

[00:02:01] But you won't be back They're all dressing in black

[00:02:06] Drinking sweet tea in styrofoam cups

[00:02:12] Mamas and grandmamas love you

[00:02:18] American boys hate to lose

[00:02:23] You never planned on the bombs in the sand

[00:02:28] Or sleeping in your dress blues

[00:02:45] Now the high school gymnasium's ready

[00:02:50] Full of flowers and old legionnaires

[00:02:56] Nobody showed up to protest

[00:03:01] Just sniffle and stare

[00:03:06] But there's red white and blue in the rafters

[00:03:11] And there's silent old men from the corps

[00:03:18] What did they say when they shipped you away

[00:03:22] To fight somebody's Hollywood war

[00:03:29] Nobody here could forget you

[00:03:34] You showed us what we had to lose

[00:03:39] You never planned on the bombs in the sand

[00:03:44] Or sleeping in your dress blues

[00:03:50] No no you never planned on the bombs in the sand

[00:03:55] Or sleeping in your dress blues
