All I have
Of my fathers' father
Meant for his wife and daughter
From the war
It's a daguerreotype
To show me what he was lookin' like
Back when he was my age, going to war
Ain't no f*ckin' 19 year old
Is gonna do what he gets told
By the man says
"Ship it out boys, we're going to war!"
Miss paisley, she lived 'bout three doors away
Her man was 'sposed to come home today
She started freakin' out and breakin' down and cryin'
She knew the man who loved her most could end up dyin'
