Letters Home From The Garden Of Stone Songtext
Sittin' restless under the moonlight
I know I'm getting ready to kill
They say we're going in with the day light
I don't want to but I will...

'Cause I won't know the man that kills me
And I don't know thes men I kill
I thank God for my salvation
Wash away the blood I spill
I try not to think about my family
'Cause it's a little too much to take
Out here I got me and I got my buddy
We can't afford even one mistake

I started writing on dirty cardboards...
It's the only paper I could find
Tell everyone I got their letters,
Tell everyone I'm doing fine

Late at night when I can dream I...
I think about life back in the world

I miss you and dad, I miss sister Sarah
I miss my wife and my baby girl

Pray for me... pray for my soul Ma
Pray for me and all my sins

They say I got a job to do now
I'll be back when it finally ends

Do you think I should be fighting?
Ma; are you proud are you ashamed?

Really I'm trying to do the right thing
I hope my Government can say the same thing

'Cause I won't know the man that kills me
And I don't know these men I kill
We all wind upon the same side
'Cause ain't none of us doin' God's Will
