Gettysburg

Sick and tired of Gettysburg, they made me write it down That was such a heavy word for me to carry around Just a young American, another pretty slave Trying to get to heaven, man, like all the billboards say ohhhhh ohhhhhh ohhhhhh ohhhhh ohhhhhh ohhhhhh I found you dancing, girl, there between the pines Every, everything I've learned went running out into the night You named me baby blue, took my shaky hands Loved me for a year or two, then danced away again ohhhhh ohhhhhh ohhhhhh ohhhhh ohhhhhh ohhhhhh Now I guess I understand, it took a while to learn You were trying to teach me that, to damn the heavy words Meet me down in Gettysburg, hold me in the shade Rolling on the very earth where dying boys had laid Where dying boys had laid Come on down if you can Come on, join the band (x2)
