high ideals |
| There’s a laddered tear in my high ideals |
| Like I took a chair on the battle field |
| And any noble fire that was burning in my chest |
| Is acid in my belly at the very best |
| There’s a bayonet in my family things |
| It was made in the USA to defend the king |
| And though the sinew, that thrust |
| And all the bones it splintered are dust |
| It’s passed from hand to hand |
| With the wedding rings |
| Oh, settle down little heart of mine |
| Oh, settle down, you’re doing double time |
| You’re so far away and she’s right here by your side |
| Oh, settle down little heart of mine |
