Til The Last Shot’s Fired

I was there in the winter of '64
When we camped in the ice
at Nashville's doors
Three hundred miles our trail had led
We barely had time to bury our dead
When the Yankees charged and the colors fell
Overton hill was a living hell
When we called retreat it was almost dark
I died with a grapeshot in my heart

Say a prayer for peace
For every fallen son
Set my spirit free
Let me lay down my gun
Sweet mother Mary I'm so tired
But I can't come home 'til
the last shot's fired

In June of 1944
I waited in the blood of Omaha's shores
Twenty-one and scared to death
My heart poundin' in my chest
I almost made the first seawall
When my friends turned and saw me fall
I still smell the smoke, I can taste the mud
As I lay there dying from a loss of blood

Say a prayer for peace
For every fallen son
Set my spirit free
Let me lay down my gun
Sweet mother Mary I'm so tired
But I can't come home 'til
the last shot's fired

I'm in the fields of Vietnam,
The mountains of Afghanistan
And I'm still hopin', waitin', prayin'
I did not die in vain

Say a prayer for peace
For every fallen son
Set our spirits free
Let us lay down our guns
Sweet mother Mary we're so tired
But we can't come home 'til
the last shot's fired
'Til the last shot's fired

[Choir:]
Say a prayer for peace (for peace)
For our daughters and our sons
Set our spirits free (set us free)
Let us lay down our guns

[Trace:]
Sweet mother Mary, we're so tired
But we can't come home (No
we can't come home)

[Choir:]
'Til the last shot's fired

Йшли корови із діброви, А овечки з поля… Заплакала молода дівчина, Край дороги стоя. Куди їдеш-від’їжджаєш, Сизокрилий орле? А хто ж мене, молоду дівчину, До серця пригорне? Пригортайся, моя мила, До серця другому, Лиш не кажи тієї правди, Що мені одному. Як

Зима

Ах, зима ты моя зима И молюсь я на лучик солнца. Шапки снежные на домах, И замёрзла вода в колодце. Но горячим твоим губам Не по чем леденящий холод. Зиму вместе со мной с ума Сводит взгляд

Зомб

Вечір весняний - теплий, духм’яний. Неслухів дім реснапсидневрікш, Канабіола, ніжна віхола, Бризки, фонтани, полюції. Везе їх човен, ласощів повен, Морем згущеного молока. Кіт шоколадний, гладун смугастий, Ловить на вудку ванільних риб. Приспів: Не кажіть мені, не буває так: Мармеладовий не
