Born in '57, one of Virginia's best By the time he reaches spring time He stood hands above the rest And I know we're 'lowed to leave him Feel the pull of the reigns He came from Carolina Knew his life was gonna change Those pastures fill the barn floor They would never be the same To him there was no black and white No, everything was gray Never wavered thru the cannon smoke and thunder There aint no time for lookin' back I never questioned the orders from the old man The hopes of a nation on his back He will never answer that battle call again Gone home with his brothers He's a soldier till the end And the grass was never greener Nor the water so clear Never wavered thru the cannon smoke and thunder There aint no time for lookin' back I never questioned the orders from the old man The hopes of a nation on his back Yeah Aus Songtexte Mania
