Soldier Blues

Walk a mile in my boots
With your toes all turning black
Try living another month
Out of the pack upon your back
With a gun tied to your shoulder
Resting in your hands
You may feel what it's like
But you sure won't understand

Redemption on my mind
The question as to how
I feel it my bones
A laughter haunts me now
Haunts me now
It's resting in my hands
Well I feel what it's like
But I sure don't understand

Oh Satan did you laugh
When that old curtain tore?
Or when that sky turned turned black
Or when that soldier swore?
He said goddamn

You may feel what is like
But you sure won't understand
