Shipped away young man To some strange foreign land The ale they serve is warmer than my hand The tongue they speak Is good as gibberish to me But I reckon that it beats killing in Vietnam I got this young Fraulein And Lord, she's easy on the eyes But we don't talk much, she helps to pass my time Oh, but when I sleep Charlene, you fill my dreams You come to me an angel in the night Charlene I swear to you, you will see my face again Sure as sweet is well-water, we have not seen our end No mountain nor no man, between us will they stand Oh you will see me again I heard he gave you a ring And I can'r blame him for a thing But there ain't no vows and I'm home on forever leave So, before you carry on I've come back across the pond To ask the fairest Tiller girl to marry me Charlene I swear to you, you will see my face again Come hell or high-water, we have not seen our end No mountain nor no man, between us will they stand Oh you will see me again

We both know that I ain't fooling no one I can't even fool myself I ain't quite sure just what I'm looking for But life inside this war is hell Can't seem to piece my head together As it lay scattered on the ground I've hid my heart atop the highest point above Look out below, I'm coming down Spirit, I'm tired of holding on Spirit, I can't hide you from the sun I'm a slave to my mind Bound by chains forged in time The taller your walls, the harder you'll fall Can't live no other life but mine Spirit, I'm tired of holding on Spirit, I can't hide you from the sun I want to let go, I don't want to hurt no more I want to let go I want to let go, I don't want to hurt no more I want to let go I want to let go, I don't want to hurt no more I want to let go I want to let go, I don't want to hurt no more I want to let go Spirit, I'm tired of holding on Spirit, I can't hide you from the sun Spirit, I'm tired of holding on Spirit, I can't hide you from the sun

Pa worked the steel mill after his days in the mines Carried my sister, mother and me on shoulders made of granite and lime Sixteen hour, midnight-turn, foreman on the floor Ann and me, we'd rest easy when we heard him walk back through the screen door Ma'd always pray before she'd bed down in her quilts She'd fix him up with whatever crumbs and a Bible verse stuffed in his lunch pale He took every shift that he could wrap his hands around Because his way to keep the wolves away was to cut their tongues out before they howl Grind till' the end of your days, like somebody's coming to take it away Don'r waste your precious time, don't sit around, don'r wait to die Grind till' the end of your life, lay it all out, leave nothing behind Rest not too easy in bed, there'll be time for sleeping when you're dead Grind till' the end of your days, like somebody's coming to take it away Don'r waste your precious time, don't sit around, don'r wait to die Grind till' the end of your life, lay it all out, leave nothing behind Rest not too easy in bed, there'll be time for sleeping when you're dead

I have lived a life of sorrow I've struggled through many days of pain Ain't felt her warmth on a winter morning Since she left me drowning in my shame I'm a lying man of my word Drunken love is sober sin This life of lies sent her walking Into the arms of another man On deaf ears my prayers have fallen And there's no one to hear me cry A broken soul, a dead man walking But ain't no room for me in the sky I sit and stare at an empty closet Where all her robes, they used to hang A hollow hole and doors left open Seems it and me are one in the same I stand over my empty vessel Black liquor bag tied over his eyes Prescription sleep in his left hand Shell of relief landed to his right On deaf ears my prayers have fallen And there's no one to hear me cry In my last hour, I've finally broken But ain't no room for me in the sky Ain't no room for me in the sky
