Текст песни Lonesome Boy from Dixie - The Outlaws

Well there′s a peach tree on a hill in northern Georgia
Where a teenage boy sits staring at the ground
Soon he'll leave to join the rebel soldiers
For the Cumberland and Nashville he is bound

He goes down to ride with the Bedford Forrest Calv′ry
He can shoot a man at a hunnert yards or more
But he knows he's just like any other soldier
If they spill his blood he'll never ride no more

Don′t you know I′m just a lonesome boy from Dixie
Help me Lord, I feel so all alone
Don't you know I′m just a lonesome boy from Dixie
I've gone to war and I just want to get home

When the battle started the rebels were outnumbered
They shot his leg with an angry cannonball
The medic came and said: we′ll all be lucky...
If the boy from Georgia makes it home at all

Don't you know I′m just a lonesome boy from Dixie
Help me Lord, I feel so all alone
Don't you know I'm just a lonesome boy from Dixie
I′ve gone to war and I just want to get home

Well there′s a peach tree on a hill in northern Georgia
Where a horse stands like a statue made of stone
Flowers bless the grave down in the meadow
Now the lonesome boy from Dixie made it home

Don't you know I′m just a lonesome boy from Dixie
Help me Lord, I feel so all alone
Don't you know I′m just a lonesome boy from Dixie
We lost the war and I just want to get home
