Hell's Half Acre |
It’s way up in the Black Hills where we come from |
There’s a girl and she warned me don’t pick up that gun |
By the law of the land |
By the promise that might is right |
She would hold me and cry — don’t you go off and fight |
Somebody knocking at my door |
Oh, I been called to war |
Say goodbye to Tobacco Road |
Wear my colors, call my brothers |
And for my country I’ll go Down on Hell’s Half Acre |
Shakin’with fever |
Rumble in the jungle |
Down on Hell’s Half Acre |
She wrote me a letter and said what have they done |
Placed a crown of thorns an this native son |
Oh, maybe they’re right, but maybe they’re wrong |
But what can I do, you’re not here you’re gone |
Something in the air is much too quiet |
Hear my heartbeat |
The storms that rages from within |
Three times thunder, blood runs cold |
Got this wound on my soul |
Down on Hell’s Half Acre |
Walking on fire |
We got trouble in the wasteland |
Down on Hell’s Half Acre |
Back in the land where buffalo roam |
Oh is this my home |
She said you’ve changed, you’re not the same |
Clouds of napalm and the opium |
The damage was already done |
Down on Hell’s Half Acre |
Shakin’with fever |
Rumble in the jungle |
Down on Hell’s Half Acre |
Down on Hell’s Half Acre |
Walking on fire |
We got trouble in the wasteland |
Down on Hell’s Half Acre |
