My Dearest Son, it's almost June
|
I hope this letter Catches up with you and finds u well
|
It's been dry but they're callin' for rain
|
And Everything's the same ol' in Johnsonville
|
Your Stubborn ol' daddy ain't said to much
|
But I'm sure you know he sends his love
|
And she goes on, In a letter from Home
|
|
[Chorus]
|
I hold it up and show my buddies
|
Like we ain't scared in our boots
|
And our boots ain't muddy
|
And they all laugh like there's Something funny
|
'bout the way I talk, When mama sends her best ya'll
|
I fold it up and put it in my shirt
|
Pick up my gun and get back to work
|
And it keeps me Drivin' on, Waitin' on
|
Letters from home
|
|
My dearest love, it's almost dawn
|
I've been layin' here all night Long,
|
Wonderin' where u might be
|
I saw your mama and I showed her the ring
|
Man on the Television said
|
Something So I couldn't sleep
|
But I'll be alright, I'm just Missin' you
|
And this is me Kissin' you
|
X's and O's In a Letter from Home
|
|
[Chorus]
|
I hold it up and show my buddies
|
Like we ain't scared and our boots ain't muddy
|
And they all Laugh 'Cause she calls me honey
|
But they take it hard, 'Cause I don't read the good parts
|
I fold it up and put it in my shirt
|
Pick up my gun and get back to work
|
And it keeps me Drivin' On, waitn' on
|
Letters from home
|
|
Dear Son, I know I ain't written
|
And sittin' here tonight alone in the kitchen
|
It occurs to me I might not have said it, So I'll say it now
|
Son, You make me Proud
|
|
[Chorus]
|
I hold it up and show my buddies
|
Like we ain't scared and our boots ain't muddy
|
But no one Laughs ' Cause ain't nothin'
|
Funny when a Soldier Cries, and I just wipe my eyes
|
I fold it up and put in my shirt get back to work
|
And it keeps me Drivin' on, waitin' on,
|
Letters from home
