Level your fretting. I won't be forgetting The flush of your face When I lifted you level To me and a wattle tree Framed your body In whispers welling with The dope of a new Spring You said "Kill me a dynasty Or our love won't mean a thing..." A bullet for a diamond ring A favor promised A promise delivered And more to you It's only a war I'll be back To your shore before You know it I'm gone, Then I'll cover you body And if you have to go Please go lightly Keep it to a foxtrot Whether he's a fox or not Keep it cold, Keep all your heat for me I'll be needing it For when I'm cold you see Let your children Remind you of me Whether by another or By the ghost in me in you There goes my baby I would think of you And a palmtree would Cover your body You... in love and war We are bound by a law, It goes to you and then To yours to recover my body She bound me up and hugged me 'O how the mother loves thee' She covered my body In a ragged flag and bloody O not on your life.
