Overalls 歌词

He wore overalls to meet his King Took a pack of Marlboro Reds and his wedding ring And his fifty-year-long faithful bride Held his hand, walked him to the other side He said Honey, I'm just so tired Of bein' hooked up to a hundred wires I wanna be in my own bed Call the kids around and said Raise a glass To my good long life Don't dress in black Don't let me see you cry I'm not afraid I'm just headed home And it's time to let me go I probably shouldn't have survived April 1945 We buried half my company And I wondered why it wasn't me Well that's the year I learned to pray Just glad to wake up every day I'm bound to see those boys again Rolling dice and cigarettes in heaven So raise a glass To my good long life Don't dress in black Don't let me see you cry I'm not afraid I'm just headed home And it's time to let me go Well you know, we kissed the ground after Japan Came home to be a mailman Right here in Crossville, Tennessee I bought this farm to raise a family We planned for four, but we had five Your baby sister was a big surprise I know I don't have much to show But I'm the richest man I know So raise a glass To my good long life Don't dress in black Don't let me see you cry I'm not afraid I'm just headed home And it's time to let me go It's time to let me go He wore overalls to meet his King Took a pack of Marlboro Reds and his wedding ring
