Caroline's Spine Solider's Song
I just got my first letter since I’ve been here And I’ve read it hundred times since yesterday It was warm relief from this chilly cage of fear And it promised me there were more on the way More were on the way ‘You see I’m a solider boy Standing on top of mountains And these snowy peaks thou beautiful Try to freeze me to the bone There are some many things that I worry about Cause I’m fifteen thousand miles away from my home And it warms my father to be proud of me And I hope my momma can’t feel me cry And it warms my friends to think I’m a hero And I want God to make sure that I don’t die You’ve gotta make sure I don’t This is the way it is when your where I’m from I come from a long rich legacy Of people posing with flags and guns The man says I’ve got so much of this world too learn about Oh, and this might be my only way out So it warms my father to be proud of me And I hope my momma can’t feel me cry And I want my friends to think I’m a hero And I want God to make sure that I don’t die You gotta make sure I don’t You gotta make sure I don’t I just got my first letter since I’ve been here And I’ve read it hundred times since yesterday It was warm relief from this chilly cage of fear And it promised me there were more on the way More were on the way More were on the way More were on the way
