The Lost Cause Lyrics
A company of skeletons in rags
March home under tattered white flags
Dauber bibles and deep empty pockets
Dark dreams and deeper eye sockets
We ain't right in the head
And our women lay dead
With the losers who chose the lost cause
It's the hard price of pride that we pay
No more cornbread, coulter or cotton
And nothing grows here but gray hairs in our coffins
Our warriors tell ghost stories
Our ghosts tell more stories
Such is the case, the lost cause
No government cheese and no cow
Just acres of skulls and a plow
The bluegrass may grow used to you
Like tree?? grows through a rusty old shoe
And our bright sunny south tastes copper in the mouth
And we'll never forget our lost cause
And the vulture is picking at bones
Lone chimneys like headstones for homes
Take those ragged white flags that hung at half mast
Beat red with the blood sucked up through the staff
From the dirt where they plant us
Six seven ?? ?? ?? at us
Maybe one day avenge our lost cause
Maybe one day avenge our lost cause
March home under tattered white flags
Dauber bibles and deep empty pockets
Dark dreams and deeper eye sockets
We ain't right in the head
And our women lay dead
With the losers who chose the lost cause
No more cornbread, coulter or cotton
And nothing grows here but gray hairs in our coffins
Our warriors tell ghost stories
Our ghosts tell more stories
Such is the case, the lost cause
Just acres of skulls and a plow
The bluegrass may grow used to you
Like tree?? grows through a rusty old shoe
And our bright sunny south tastes copper in the mouth
And we'll never forget our lost cause
Lone chimneys like headstones for homes
Take those ragged white flags that hung at half mast
Beat red with the blood sucked up through the staff
From the dirt where they plant us
Six seven ?? ?? ?? at us
Maybe one day avenge our lost cause
Maybe one day avenge our lost cause
