great grandaddy's war - the mulligan brothers lyrics
[verse 1]
i can’t remember the last time i saw a real smile
just faces made for pictures just across the aisle
i was born on this team i was born to win
lord have mercy on the others and forgive their sins
[chorus]
i know that i’m supposed to be angry
for the life of my i can’t figure out what for
if i can lie down with someone who loves me
instead of dying in my great-granddaddy’s war
[verse 2]
we were born here crying with our egos bruised
below the mason dixon with the red state blues
we got a lot of heroes here screaming southern pride
but a hero is just a villain to the other side
[verse 3]
there’s a hundred years of bitterness in our blood
and it flows with the conviction of a forty-day flood
until we’re out of ammunition and the rivers run red
over what jesus meant but what he never said
[chorus]
i know that i’m supposed to be angry
for the life of my i can’t figure out what for
if i canlie down with someone who loves me
instead of dying in my great-granddaddy’s war
[bridge]
oh p-ss me down that p-ssion
and those blue eyes
give me that strong back and thinning hair
i’ll take those callused hand and i will use them for good
but let me choose my own cross to bear
’cause they’re heavier down here
i swear they’re heavier down here
[chorus]
i know that i’m supposed to be angry
for the life of my i can’t figure out what for
i believe that i’d be fortunate to die here
but i ain’t dying in my great-grandaddy’s war
i don’t wanna die in my great-granddaddy’s war
i ain’t dying in my great-granddaddy’s war
