lirik lagu ben bedford - twenty one
red winged blackbird
on a split rail fence
i ain’t seen since god knows when
months ago, up in illinois
along the sangamon with my wife and boy
and god i’m only twenty one
i got a muzzle loading ’58 springfield gun
but i’d rather push my wooden plough
i’d feel the strain of the ox and a sweat stained brow
and i’d go back home but i don’t know how
my face is black, from the cook fire soot
i got worn out legs and ten blisters on each foot
my letters might find her but hers don’t find me
they say the post got lost up in tennessee
and i’m proud to serve, i just feel alone
at least the greycoats ain’t so far from home
at night i hеar those swampland sounds
the mosquitoes hеre must weigh fifteen pounds
and i’d go back home but i don’t know how
i’d go back home but i don’t know how
last night we climbed up to the levee top
we could see the holes in the houses where the b~lls had dropped
twelve pound, ten pound, eight pound sh~lls
there was a symphony of crashes with the town hall bell
and it makes my heart stop every time
the iron hits a white frame house like mine
john pemberton, please surrender now
’cause there’s a stale smell over vicksburg town
and i’d go back home but i don’t know how
i’d go back home but i don’t know how
red winged blackbird on a split rail fence
i ain’t seen since god knows when
