Hell's Half Acre

Yeah, it's way up in the Black Hills Where we come from There's a girl and she warned me Don't pick up that gun, gun Oh, by the law of the land By the promise that might is right She would hold me and cry Don't you go off the fight Somebody knocking at my door Oh, I been called to war Say goodbye to Tobacco Road Wear my colors, call my brothers And for my country I'll go Down on Hell's Half Acre and again Shakin' with fever, come again Rumble in the jungle Oh down on Hell's Half Acre and again Oh, she wrote me in a letter And said, "What have they done?" Oh, my angel Placed a crown of thorns On this native son, like that Oh, maybe they're right Oh, but maybe they're wrong Oh, but what can I do You're not here you're gone Somethin' in the air is much too quiet Hear my heartbeat, oh The storms that rages from within Three times thunder, blood runs cold Got this wound on my soul Down on Hell's Half Acre and again Walkin' on fire, come again Trouble in the wasteland Down on Hell's Half Acre and again Oh, back in the land where buffalo roam Oh, is this my home She said, "You've changed, you're not the same" Clouds of napalm and the opium The damage was already done Down on Hell's Half Acre and again Shakin' with fever and again Rumble in the jungle Oh, down on Hell's Half Acre Oh, down on Hell's Half Acre Walkin' on fire We got trouble in the wasteland Oh, down on Hell's Half Acre and again
