Stories from the Battlefield

Tension in the air tonight

Trouble is on they mind

The spirit took a hold of him, you see fire in his eyes

That firewater in his cup got him feeling wrong (wrong wrong wrong)

Been talking war talk all day singing killing songs

As sure as lightning comes down and it starts to rain

Anybody cross him gonna feel his pain, it's a shame

Oh it’s a shame, stories from the battle

Stories from the battlefield

To survive you need a heart of steel

Can’t take your glory, and you better not kneel

Tell a story from the battlefield

Open up his wings, he put the rifle to his chest

He said I don’t fear nothing but the lord and death

I got thirteen stitches across my chest, I ain’t playing (I ain’t playing)

See that boy got a shield on his right, hatchet on his left

Drew his line so you better not take one step

Heart beating fast can’t catch his breath, god damn!

As sure as lightning come down, and it starts to rain

Anybody cross him gonna feel his pain, it's a shame

Oh it’s a shame, stories from the battle

Stories from the battlefield

To survive you need a heart of steel

Can’t take your glory, and you better not kneel

Tell a story from the battlefield

See I told my mama

I said I ain’t worried

Never been scared now

Said I kill ‘em all dead
