O Brother - Monty Are I

A life of gun in hand, with a dedication to your land

Inside out you’ve shown it’s not what life’s all about

No, we can not believe in what you said

When your whole life’s been a sacrifice mislead (mislead.)

But we still hold the pride

When the gun smoke clears, we’ll still salute you

When you return by the tides

We’ll be here to see your life through

I’m confused and punctured

My conscience is my only means of direction

Did I sign up for suicide, of a saddened bride?

Three more years, no white picket fencing, and suffering a mental conviction

Please, don’t you think that now we will look down

On a man who’s realized what’s true to him now?

(to him now)

But we still hold the pride

When the gun smoke clears, we’ll still salute you

When you return by the tides

We’ll be here to see your life through.

(to see your life)

It’s not giving up, it’s seeing what else there’s to see

When you’re soon set free, there is so much more than a camouflaged hell

SO COCK THE GUN AND FIRE INTO THE EYES OF A GREAT DESIRE

A fleeting destiny that is turned into what is considered to be normal

And I’m here for you

No, we can not believe in what you said

When your whole life’s been a sacrifice mislead (mislead.)

But we still hold the pride

When the gun smoke clears, we’ll still salute you

When you return by the tides

We’ll be here to see your life through

But we still hold the pride

When the gun smoke clears, we’ll still salute you

When you return by the tides

We’ll be here to see your life through

We still hold the pride

When the gun smoke clears, we’ll still salute you

When you return by the tides

We’ll be here to see your life through

We still hold the pride

When the gun smoke clears, we’ll still salute you

When you return by the tides

We’ll be here to see your life through
