Mother, I tried to do right by you
To do what you asked me to
I did wrong, and I knew
ย
Mother, I tried to behave for you
Now I'm a-diggin' a grave for you
It was all I could do
ย
Find a way back home, make everything new
I wish it was true
ย
Father, well I gave my soul to you
I came in blind folded for you
It was all that I knew
ย
Open your arms and I'll fly out of hell up to you
I wish it was true
ย
Boy, come on out from the cold
You're lost outside there, don't you know?
It's not what you say, it's what you do
Just keep wishing your wishes are true
Well, your dreams, they're reality, yeah
There's no pain, there's no misery
Just polish the blood and the brews
For there's just no way you can lose
Well, I wish it was true
ย
Country, I was a solider to you
ย
I did what you asked me to
It was wrong, and you knew
ย
Country, now I'm just a stranger to you
A number, a name; it's true
Throw me away when you're through
ย
Home of the brave and the free; the red, white, and blue
Well, I wish it was true
