Johnny Cash( 強尼凱許 ) Big Battle , The 歌詞

9.Big Battle , The

I think sir the battle is over, and the young soldier lay down
his gun.
I'm tired of running for cover, I'm certain the battle is done.
For see over there where we fought them, it's quite for they've
all gone away.
All left is the dead and the dying, the blue lying long side the
grave.

So you think the battle is over, and you even lay down your gun.
You carelessly rise from your cover, for you think the battle is
done.
Now boy hit the dirt, listen to me, for I'm still the one in
command.
Get flat on the ground here beside me, and lay your heart to the
sand.

Can you hear the deafening rumble, can you feel the trembling
ground.
It's not just the horses and wagons that make such a deafening
sound.
For every shot fired had an echo and every man killed wanted
life.
There lies your friend Jim McKinney, can you take the news to
his wife？

No son the battle's not over, the battle has only begun.
The rest of the battle will cover the part that has blackened
the sun.
The fight yet to come is not with cannon, nor will the fight be
hand-to-hand
No one will regroup the forces, no charge will a general
command.

The battle will rage in the bosom of mother and sweetheart and
wife.
Brother and sister and daughter will grieve for the rest of
their lives.
Now go ahead, rise from your cover, be thankful that God let you
live.
Go fight the rest of the battle for those who gave all they
could give.

I see sir the battle's not over, the battle has only begun
The rest of the battle will cover this part that has blackened
the sun.
For though there's no sound of the cannon and though there's no
smoke in the sky.
I'm dropping the gun and the saber and ready for battle am I.
