Billy Joe Shaver - Good Christian Soldier şarkı sözleri

Sanatçı: Billy Joe Shaver

albüm: The Essential Billy Joe Shaver


Not so long ago in Oklahoma, the son of an Okie preacher knelt to pray
He said Lord I want to be a Christian soldier just for you
And fight to build a new and better day
Now many years and miles from Oklahoma
That same young Okie boy still kneels to pray
But he don't pray to be no Christian soldier anymore
He just prays to make it through another day
'Cause Lord, it's hard to be a Christian soldier when you tote a gun
And it hurts to have to watch a grown man cry
But we're playin' cards and writin' home havin' lots of fun
Telling jokes and learning how to die
♪
You know, the things I've come to know seem so confusin'
♪
It's gettin' hard to tell what's wrong from right
I can't separate the winners from the losers anymore
So I'm thinking of just giving up the fight
'Cause Lord, it's hard to be a Christian soldier when you tote a gun
And it hurts to have to watch the children man cry
But we're playin' cards and lightin' up ain't we hadn't fun
Turning on and learning how to die
