[00:15.74] Got a song about a soldier,
[00:17.04]
[00:29.53] ridin' somewhere on a train
[00:33.15] empty sleeve pinned to his shoulder
[00:35.52]
[00:36.58] and some pills to ease the pain
[00:39.39]
[00:42.57] Started drinkin' in El Paso,
[00:45.76]
[00:50.25] he was drunk in San Antone,
[00:53.00]
[01:00.18] tellin' strangers who were sleepin'
[01:02.18]
[01:03.61] how he hated goin' home
[01:06.81]
[01:17.07] Just a simple song of freedom,
[01:18.69] he was never fightin' for,
[01:20.81]
[01:23.56] no one's listenin' when you need 'em,
[01:27.05]
[01:29.36] ain't no fun to sing that song no more.
[01:33.48]
[01:45.41] Got a song about a sister,
[01:48.34] waitin' somewhere by the phone,
[01:50.27]
[01:57.13] for some man who never missed her,
[01:59.11]
[02:01.68] ever since he come and gone
[02:04.74]
[02:09.30] And its harder for a woman,
[02:11.92]
[02:15.56] with a baby on the way,
[02:18.24]
[02:23.39] that's the price of bein' human,
[02:24.30]
[02:28.83] when you're poor enough to pay,
[02:31.58]
[02:36.34] So she listens to the freedom,
[02:38.65]
[02:42.17] in the silence at her door
[02:44.73]
[02:48.94] no one's missin' till you need 'em
[02:51.94]
[02:57.32] ain't no fun to sing that song no more
[02:59.88]
[03:09.43] Got a song about a Savior,
[03:12.61]
[03:18.29] lookin' lonesome and afraid,
[03:20.03]
[03:25.36] at a city full of strangers,
[03:27.24]
[03:30.17] and a cross He never made
[03:33.35]
[03:37.61] And He's sadder than He's wiser,
[03:40.80]
[03:46.03] and a longer way from home,
[03:48.03]
[03:54.53] and He wonders why His Father,
[03:57.27]
[03:57.83] left Him bleeding and alone.
[04:00.20]
[04:05.05] Just a broken song of freedom,
[04:07.36]
[04:13.35] and the closing of a door,
[04:15.41]
[04:19.37] no one's missin' till you need 'em
[04:21.62]
[04:24.70] ain't no fun to sing that song no more.
