Dress Blues
By Jason Isbell

What can you see from your window
I can't see anything from mine
Flags on the side of the highway
Scripture on grocery store signs

Maybe 18 was too early
Maybe 30 or 40 is too
Did you get your chance to make peace with the man
before he sent down his angels for you

Momma's and Grandmomma's love you
Cause that's all they know how to do
You never planned on the bombs in the sand
Or sleepin' in your dress blues
Your wife said this all would be funny
If you came back home in a week
You'd turn 22 and they'd celebrate you
In a bar or a tent by the creek

Your baby would just about be here
Your very last tour would be up
You ain't comin' back, they're all dressin' in black
Drinkin' sweet tea in styrofoam cups

Momma's and Grandmomma's love you
American boys hate to lose
You never planned on the bombs in the sand
Or sleepin' in your dress blues

The high school gymnasium's ready
Full of flowers and old legionnaires
Nobody showed up to protest
Just to sniffle and stare

Red white and blue in the rafters
Silent old men from the Corps
What did they say when they shipped you away
To fight somebody's Hollywood war

And nobody here could forget you
You showed us what we had to lose
You never planned on the bombs in the sand
Or sleepin' in your dress blues

 

Sky Blue and Black -- Jackson Browne

 

Time to Confess, Gov't Mule

 

Temperatue- Sean Paul
