Bugler — текст песни (Byrds, The)

Written by Larry Murray

Back when Cattle Creek used to sing
it`s waters were sweet and its banks were green
and sunny days, went on forever
Me and old Bugler, we`d run wild
bluetick hound and the redneck child
we thought we were, birds of a feather

Ah the fish would bite, my how they`d bite
we`d catch them possoms in the pail moonlight
for ma, just to please her
Bugler`s voice like Gabriel`s horn
up in the cypress, all down through the corn
golden sounds, yes to treasure

CHORUS
Bugler, Bugler, bless your hide
Jesus gonna take you for a chariot ride
Say Goodbye, Say Goodbye

One day Ma she brought the news
She said, honey young Bugler`s done paid his dues
he`s been hit down, yes on that highway
Dry your eyes and stand up straight
Bugler`s got a place at the pearly gates
Say goodbye sugar, Oh say goodbye

REPEAT CHORUS
