Letra de la canción 'OLD MAN TELL ME' de 'DAVID ALLAN COE'

Iand've seen the old man sittinand' and'round
the courthouse square back home in town
talking bout the big war back in 1943
sayinand' how much good itand's done
medals gleaminand' in the sun
cussinand' at my long hair
and my talk of beinand' free
their vision like their battle scars
of other wars has faded
like the colors on the ribbons
from the battles that theyand've won
if thereand's one thing iand've learned itand's this
you just canand't shake hands with a fist
and i once did my talkinand' with a gun
and, old man, i know what youand've seen
but yours is not the only dream
i have to believe in something more
than yesterday
let it die, just like the past
i believe thereand's hope at last
old man, did you ever have to pray
old man, can you show me the way
[ harmonica ]
he shakes his head from time to time
and rambles somewhere in his mind
mumbling and'bout the civil war
and how we should have won
settinand' up his battle plans
on checkerboards at his command
watchinand' all his gallant kings
go falling one by one
and son heand'd say thereand's not much time
for you to straighten out your mind
but you never listen to
the things i try to say
and i just turn my head and cry
never understanding why
heand's set up that checkerboard
when he knew i couldnand't play
