Back then, it seemed
I was cheated
There was a thousand miles between us
And I can't see a damn thing
Takin' a ride
I'm off to the (war)
They all knew I wasn't
Coming home
My ticket's burned
I don't know why
Unlucky am I
The end was coming
My patience running out
There was no hope to speak oj
Inside
I was down to pennies
If there was anyway
To sell my soul
I surely have tried
But now I'm back with
A fist full of words
Layin' down some blues
That you ain't never heard
Life is just groovy
And it tastes like it should
I got me a hawg
And a place in the woods
Lungs full of herb
And it's all good!
Takin' a ride
I'm back from the war
Think it's time they all
Knew I was home
My ticket's good
I'll tell you why
How lucky am I!
If home is where it's at
Do I get another chance?
This time around
I said if home is where it's at
Do I get another chance?
I'll bring you a
Taste of war
How lucky am I!
My ticket's good
I'll tell you why
How lucky am I?
Or so I pretend
I was enlisted at the age of twelve Back then, it seemed I was cheated There was a thousand miles between us And I can't see a damn thing Takin' a ride I'm off to the (war) They all knew I wasn't Coming home My ticket's burned I don't know why Unlucky am I The end was coming My patience running out There was no hope to speak oj Inside I was down to pennies If there was anyway To sell my soul I surely have tried But now I'm back with A fist full of words Layin' down some blues That you ain't never heard Life is just groovy And it tastes like it should I got me a hawg And a place in the woods Lungs full of herb And it's all good! Takin' a ride I'm back from the war Think it's time they all Knew I was home My ticket's good I'll tell you why How lucky am I! If home is where it's at Do I get another chance? This time around I said if home is where it's at Do I get another chance? I'll bring you a Taste of war How lucky am I! My ticket's good I'll tell you why How lucky am I?
