The White Buffalo - Ballad of a Dead Man (Lyrics)

From Once Upon a Time in the West

Lyrics:
The moon lights up over the battlefield now,
With a blistering heat somehow
Lifeless and broken heart to death,
they should have just stayed home instead
stayed alive.

We'll let her rice
We gliss on some others eyes
She wonders where when and why
She could have tucket him in his bed,
with a kiss on the cheek and his head
He'd still lay

Well the moon and the stars
can't cast shaddows on what is wrong
well my boys are dead, living is lead.
Nothing more

The sun wakes up, bring sparkles in the morning light,
Rubbs a belly bouncer head to cry,
she lost him before they were wed
but hes there in her heart and her head, hes still alive

Well the moon and the stars can't cast shaddows of what is wrong
well my boys are dead, living is lead.
Nothing more
Oh the moon lights up over the battlefield now.

[madarauchiha]

Because I'm a historian who's into ww1 and ww2 when ever I hear this I think about all those young men who never made it home. I think one of the safest things to not only die but fade into irrelevance your name, your story long forgotten. When ever I meet a veteran I hear their story so what happened to them is remembered.

Actual lyrics : The Moon lights up over the battlefield now
With a blistering heat somehow
Lifeless limp and broken hearts are dead
They should have just stayed home instead
Stayed alive

Well the letter arrives and glistens a mother's eyes
She wonders where when and why
She could have tucked him in his bed
With a kiss on the cheek and his head
He'd still lie

Well the moon and the stars can't cast shadows on what is wrong
Well our boys are dead
They've been misled
Nothing more

The sun wakes up
Brings sparkles in the morning light
Rubs her belly bows her head to cry
She lost him before they were wed
But he's there in her heart and her head
He'll stay alive

Oh the moon and the stars can't cast shadows on what is wrong
Well our boys are dead
They've been misled
Nothing more



Well the moon and the stars can't cast shadows on what is wrong
Well our boys are dead
They've been misled
Nothing more

The moon lights up, over the battlefield now

I wish he would tour the east coast, seems to stay west, or in Europe. I suppose I will have to hop on a plane out west just to see him perform live. The man is amazing.
