Bilingual
He held his cards close to his chest and smiled across the mud
Pulled a smoke from a green flak vest and laid back like a god
Saved my life a million times before I knew his name
I watched him die between the lines praying for his pain
He kicked the dust between the rows and dug an empty well
Broke the plow then blew his nose and cursed the sky to hell
Said it's got so dry out here that I can't even cry
I can't work and I can't sleep and it's too damn hot to die
For all the struggle that you go through
For all our mother blue blows
For all the trouble we put you to
By sorrow they get weak hearts
And for every wicked sinner born anew
For every fallen angel turning blue
Man, for every long lost soul without a shoe
Hey, for all, for all that you do
This blood's for you
God put his son upon the world to save the sins of men
Watched them kill him on a cross and then took him home again
Maybe he's a vengeful God and maybe we're to blame
Maybe we're just paying back in blood and death and pain
For all the struggle that you go through
For all our mother blue blows
For all the trouble we put you to
By sorrow they get weak hearts
And for every wicked sinner born anew
For every fallen angel turning blue
Man, for every long lost soul without a shoe
Hey, for all, for all that you do
This blood's for you

This blood's for you

I said this blood is for you
