Song Lyrics
That same young okie boy still kneels to pray, telling jokes and learning how to die
So i m thinking bout just giving up the fight, that same young okie boy still kneels to pray, so i m thinking bout just giving up the fight
But he don t pray to be a christian soldier anymore, i can t separate the winners from the losers anymore
Not so long ago in oklahoma, things i m seeing now seem so confusin
It hurts to have to watch a grown man cry, i can t separate the winners from the losers anymore Kris, but we re playin cards and writin home and havin lots of fun
And fight to build a new and better day, i can t separate the winners from the losers anymore
That same young okie boy still kneels to pray, and fight to build a new and better day
But we re playin cards and writin home and havin lots of fun, things i m seeing now seem so confusin, telling jokes and learning how to die
That same young okie boy still kneels to pray, i can t separate the winners from the losers anymore Kris, cause lord it s hard to be a christian soldier when you tote a gun
the son of an okie preacher knelt to pray
but we re playin cards and writin home and havin lots of fun
it hurts to have to watch a grown man cry
but we re playin cards and writin home and havin lots of fun
And fight to build a new and better day, he just prays to make it through another day
he said lord i wanna be a christian soldier just like you
But we re playin cards and writin home and havin lots of fun, telling jokes and learning how to die Kristofferson, now many years and miles from oklahoma
Things i m seeing now seem so confusin, he just prays to make it through another day
not so long ago in oklahoma
Now many years and miles from oklahoma, it hurts to have to watch a grown man cry, telling jokes and learning how to die
Things i m seeing now seem so confusin, i can t separate the winners from the losers anymore Christian, lord it s gettin hard to tell what s wrong from right
Telling jokes and learning how to die, but we re playin cards and writin home and havin lots of fun
The son of an okie preacher knelt to pray, but we re playin cards and writin home and havin lots of fun Kristofferson, now many years and miles from oklahoma
but we re playin cards and writin home and havin lots of fun
