Purple Heart |
| Clearwater River never-ending canyon such a long way where you are |
| On the trail of Old Chief Joseph to the cold Northern Prairie |
| I hear you calling from afar |
| Your Purple Heart and Bronze Star |
| I walk the woods there behind your son my lucky rifle in my hand |
| We laugh and wander like soldiers on the run |
| Huntin' down an outlaw Indian band |
| To where they made their final stand |
| And Charlie can we talk about the war tonight |
| Did you really kill 500 men |
| Did their eyes glisten in the mortar light |
| Would you go back there again |
| With that damned old Agent Orange in your blood |
| And that twisp of Old Montana in your scar |
| Will you dig out that old Colt 45 |
| Your Purple Heart and Bronze Star |
| Years on the mountain mappin' out the Bob Morgan horses on the trails |
| Them old canvas wall tents don’t hold out Grizzler Bears |
| But that old pistol never failed |
| And the best outfitter never tells |
| Repeat Chorus |
| Final Verse: |
| Gotta go now I make my livin' singin' songs of men like you |
| But this music business it’s like a war man |
| They’ll kill a million ‘fore they’re through |
| But my bullets fire red white and blue |
| Final Chorus: |
