Music and lyrics by corb lund

I heard all them pretty girls singin all them pretty words, and how
I heard all them pretty girls singin all them pretty words, oh wow
Now i'm sick and broken hearted and i know what that song means now

I heard em sing old blues and sing about the mules and plough
I heard em sing their blues and sing about their mules and plough
Now i'm hardscrabble farmin and i know what that song means now

Reveille was called and i thought about the laurel bough
Reveille was called and i dreamt about the laurel bough
My legs have both been shattered and i know what that song means now
My sons have both been slaughtered and i know what that song means now

I heard a little bird chirp and then i thought i heard a meow
I heard a little bird, he chirped and then i thought i heard a meow
But i been walking around hungry and i know what that song means now

I heard em sing the hymns and i heard fire and brimstone avowed
I heard em sing their hymns and in tongues i heard brimstone avowed
But brother, i found the lord and i know what that song means now
And that collection plate goes round and i know what that song means now
