Lyrics:
Well I pray everyday
That the good Lord will keep me safe
And I try to hide all this fear built in my spine
Killing men today so I can see your pretty face
Until I arrive in your arms
I don’t know what you’re doing
Fighting in this silly war
You're not a Yankee, love
Nor a grey-back confederate
Trying to keep the slaves aboard
You are just a simple man
Trying to do these things the best you can
Now it’s time to come home
I've got a baby in the oven that
Needs a dad before she gets old
Well I pray every day
That the good Lord will keep me safe
And I try to hide all this fear built in my spine
Killing men today, so I can see your pretty face
Until I arrive in your arms
Well I don’t know what I’m doing
Fighting in this stupid war
I'm not a Yankee or a grey back anymore
I've killed so many men just to kill so many more
Just want to see my baby before I die in this shit storm
Well I pray everyday
That the good Lord will keep me safe
And I try to hide all this fear built in my spine
Killing men today so I can see your pretty face
Until I arrive in your arms
Well I prayed everyday
That the good Lord would keep me safe
And I tried to hide all this fear built in my spine
Killin' men today so I could see her pretty face
Until I die in your arms
