Lyrics:

Well I pray everyday

That the good Lord will keep me safe

And I try to hide all this fear built in my spine

Killing men today so I can see your pretty face

Until I arrive in your arms

I don’t know what you’re doing

Fighting in this silly war

You're not a Yankee, love

Nor a grey-back confederate

Trying to keep the slaves aboard

You are just a simple man

Trying to do these things the best you can

Now it’s time to come home

I've got a baby in the oven that

Needs a dad before she gets old

Well I pray every day

That the good Lord will keep me safe

And I try to hide all this fear built in my spine

Killing men today, so I can see your pretty face

Until I arrive in your arms

Well I don’t know what I’m doing

Fighting in this stupid war

I'm not a Yankee or a grey back anymore

I've killed so many men just to kill so many more

Just want to see my baby before I die in this shit storm

Well I pray everyday

That the good Lord will keep me safe

And I try to hide all this fear built in my spine

Killing men today so I can see your pretty face

Until I arrive in your arms

Well I prayed everyday

That the good Lord would keep me safe

And I tried to hide all this fear built in my spine

Killin' men today so I could see her pretty face

Until I die in your arms
