Donât you feel like talkinâ to a man whoâs fed up walkinâ all the time
Donât you feel like sayinâ to a man whoâs fed up prayinâ that youâre mine
We fought a lot of battles from Nebraska to Seattle, Iâm so tired
We hid in lonely places and we never seen the faces âtil they fired.
Well hear me talkinâ (blood and glory)
Iâm fed up walkinâ (blood and glory)
Iâll tell a story (blood and glory)
About blood and glory.
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/g/gerry+rafferty/blood+and+glory_20500016.html ]
When we threw away our sabers and we joined with Prestonâs Raiders for a while
We looted and we plundered while the Yankee cannons thundered, we just smiled
But now back home in Kentucky, and I know Iâve been lucky to survive
I never want to see another cannon aimed at me while Iâm alive.
Well hear me talkinâ (blood and glory)
Iâm fed up walkinâ (blood and glory)
Iâll tell a story (blood and glory)
About blood and glory.
