Viewing Lyrics for 50000 Names:
| | | Artist: | George Jones |
| | Album: | Miscellaneous | | Track: | 50000 Names | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 147 | | | | Lyrics: | There are teddy bears & high school rings
& old photographs that mamas bring
That
daddies with their young boys, playing ball.
There's combat boots that he used to wear,
When he was sent over there.
There's 50,000 names carved in the wall
There's
cigarettes, & theres cans of beer
& notes that say I miss you dear
& children
who don't say anything at all.
There's purple hearts and packs of gum
fatherless
daughters and fatherless sons
& there's 50,000 names carved in the wall
They
come from all across this land
In pickup trucks and mini vans
Searching for a boy from
long ago
They scan the wall and find his name
The teardrops fall like pouring rain
& silently they leave a gift and go
There's stars of David & rosary beads
& crucifixion figurines
& flowers of all colors large and small
There's a Boy
Scout badge and a merit pin
Little American flags waving in the wind
& there's 50,000
names carved in the wall. | | | |
