Lyrics
A true story & a tribute to the life of one young man, speak his name With achin' heart & steady hand Im puttin pen to paper father dear I trust these words'll find you And pray that you can read 'em through your tears They say a man thats born to sing Can scare away his woes And banish all his anger & his pain But the screamin' jn my head Killed the singin' in my soul And i fear i'll never recall the tune again Ive trouble with the sleepin' My shadows weight impossible to bear I hear my Sister weepin' And callin to me from that other where The names o' them I loved Are carved into my skin The greatest crew a fightr ever had They call us gypsy b*st*rds And say it like its sin That all our wars are merry And all our songs are sad Tell em I went out dancin' tell em I went to war Tell em whatever you want to all the same Its said a man dies first when hes parted wi' his soul And second when folk forget to speak his name
