Two Weeks From Twenty |
| Jimmy wasn’t really popular |
| He had a couple of friends back home |
| And sooner or later they’re all getting out so he had to join up alone |
| He was dreaming of the ivory league since he was only three feet tall |
| And get the hell out of jersey and then he would never look back at all |
| And then your heroes say |
| That miles away |
| We lost another one that we sent with a gun |
| They’re gonna miss him he was two weeks from twenty and there’s still no shame |
| From the man to blame |
| Jimmy never had a reason to stay |
| Cos all the factories shut down |
| All he had was a line for his name |
| So he could sign away his right to be proud |
| He tried to kiss her on the way out the door, |
| She just put her little hand on his face |
| I don’t understand why you’re leaving, she said |
| But I hope your gonna ask me to wait |
| And then your heroes say |
| That miles away |
| We lost another one that we sent with a gun |
| His lady missed him, he was two weeks from twenty and there’s still no shame |
| From the man to blame |
| Jimmy’s mother went to Capitol Hill |
| So she could fill her heart up with joy |
| Maybe shake a few hands while she’s there and tell them thank you sir for |
| taking my boy. |
| And then your heroes say |
| That miles away |
| We lost another one that we sent with a gun |
| His mama missed him he was two weeks from twenty and there’s still no shame |
| From the man to blame |
| No there’s still no shame |
| And we’re all to blame |
| We’re all to blame |
| We’re all to blame |
| We’re all to blame |
| We’re all to blame |
