james otto - soldiers and jesus lyrics
grand-daddy came home in a b-52
in a pine box covered in red, white and blue
he was one of the brave and the proud and the few
twenty-one guns helped us say goodbye
i stood there in silence tryin’ hard not to cry
as the preacher, he quoted, lines written in red
and then he folded his bible and in a broken voice, he said
there’s only two people who’s every died for me
laid down their lives just so i could be free
they both went through h-ll, beared crosses and sh-lls
and both got back up again after they fell
they never picked the fight, but they’re there
to pick up the pieces
god only knows who we’d be without soldiers and jesus
it seems like the news loves to run ’em both down
but whenever we need ’em, they’re always around
so don’t hand me a party’s political views
’cause they’re a left side, a right side, and then there’s the truth
there’s only two people who’s every died for me
laid down their lives just so i could be free
they both went through h-ll, beared crosses and sh-lls
and both got back up again after they fell
they never picked the fight, but they’re there
to pick up the pieces
god only knows who we’d be without soldiers and jesus
to me, they’re both heroes for the path that they chose
’cause one fights for my life, one fights for my soul
there’s only two people who’s every died for me
laid down their lives just so i could be free
they both went through h-ll, beared crosses and sh-lls
and both got back up again after they fell
they never picked the fight, but they’re there
to pick up the pieces
god only knows where we’d be without soldiers and jesus
soldiers and jesus
