歌曲:Two Weeks From Twenty
Jimmy wasn't really popular
He had a couple of friends
back home
And sooner or later
they're all getting out
so he had to join up alone
He was dreaming
of the ivy league
since he was only
three feet tall
And get the hell out of jersey
and then he would
never look back at all
And then you hear'em say
That miles away
We lost another one
that we sent with a gun
They're gonna miss him
he was two weeks from twenty
and there's still no shame
From the man to blame
Jimmy never
had a reason to stay
Cos all the factories
shut down
All he had was a line
for his name
So he could sign away
his right to be proud
He tried to kiss her
on the way out the door,
She just put her little
hand on his face
I don't understand
why you're leaving, she said
But I hope your
gonna ask me to wait
And then you hear'em say
That miles away
We lost another one
that we sent with a gun
His lady missed him,
he was two weeks from twenty
and there's still no shame
From the man to blame
Jimmy's mother
went to Capitol Hill
So she could fill
her heart up with joy
Maybe shake a few hands
while she's there
and tell them thank you sir
for taking my boy.
And then your hear'em say
That miles away
We lost another one
that we sent with a gun
His mama missed him
he was two weeks from twenty
and there's still no shame
From the man to blame
No there's still no shame
And we're all to blame
We're all to blame
We're all to blame
We're all to blame
We're all to blame
