tour of duty - live from alabama - jason isbell and the 400 unit lyrics

Loading...

i’m arriving on the day’s last train
stepping on the platform trying to see you through the rain
i don’t know the ways you’ve changed since i left
and i really don’t care
cause i’ve done my tour of duty
now i’m home and i ain’t going anywhere

well i taught myself to tolerate the pain
the loneliness and the boredom and the work i did in vain
all the work we did in vain
now i’m not the same as i was
but i’ve done my tour of duty
i’ll try to do what ace a million does

and i promise not to bore you with my stories
and i promise not to scare you with my tears
i never would exaggerate the glory
i’ll seem so satisfied here

i been eating like i’m out on bail
collard greens and chicken wings and oysters by the pail
eating oysters by the pail
making up for those lost days
cause i’ve done my tour of duty
now i’m going to put you in my family way

and we’ll laugh like little children telling secrets
probably cry like old women drinkin’ gin
cause i’ve done my tour of duty
now i’m home and i ain’t leaving here again
well i’ve done my tour of duty and i ain’t leaving here again

- jason isbell and the 400 unit lyrics
