Death does as death is.
The best laid plans
will not be undertaken
for the undertaker
must not be delayed.
When she cries on my shoulder
I just want to hold her
and let her tears roll down,
gently roll down my back
then become part of my being.
Home of the brave
Home of the free
Home of the homeless
how can this be?
Hey Taliban man
chase my blues away.
We ain’t in the mood
to play with you dude,
‘cause you ambushed,
shot and killed
Sergeant Larry Rougle
just yesterday.
So, hey Taliban man –
What’s on your mind today?
My man left today
Down to Lawson mine
To earn the family pay.
Left his new born
This Sunday morn
Before the church bells rang
Never to return again.
