One Hell Of An Amen

The Preacher said, "He died too young

Over there, totin' that gun

For Uncle Sam and our freedom"

Mom and Dad had dressed in black

They folded up that flag

Handed it to Dad and started prayin'

Yeah, he went out, twenty-one guns blazin'

That's one hell of an amen

That's the only way to go

Fightin' the good fight

Till the good Lord calls you home

So, be well, my friend

Till I see you again

Yeah, this is our last goodbye

It's a hell of an amen

Amen

Doctor said, "He ain't got long"

He just smiled and said, "Bring it on

Well, if you think I'm scared

You got me all wrong

No, a little cancer can't break me

My heart's right, and I believe"

We all hit our knees

And started prayin'

No, he never gave up

Just said, "The good Lord's waitin'"

And that's one hell of an amen

That's the only way to go

Fightin' the good fight

Till the good Lord calls you home

So, be well, my friend

Till I see you again

If this is our last goodbye

It's a hell of an amen

So, be well, my friend

Till I see you again

If this is our last goodbye

It's a hell of an amen

Amen

That's a hell of an amen
