John Michael Montgomery Miscellaneous Letters From Home My Dear Son, it is almost June, I hope this letter catches up to you, and finds you well. Its been dry but theyre calling for rain, And everything's the same ol same in Johnsonville. Your stubborn 'ol Daddy aint said too much, But Im sure you know he sends his love, And she goes on, In a letter from home. I hold it up and show my buddies, Like we aint scared and our boots aint muddy, and they all laugh, Like theres something funny bout the way I talk, When I say: "Mama sends her best yall." I fold it up an' put it in my shirt, Pick up my gun an' get back to work. An' it keeps me driving me on, Waiting on letters from home. My Dearest Love, its almost dawn. Ive been lying here all night long wondering where you might be. I saw your Mama and I showed her the ring. Man on the television said something so I couldnt sleep. But Ill be all right, Im just missing you. An' this is me kissing you: XXs and OOs, In a letter from home. I hold it up and show my buddies, Like we aint scared and our boots aint muddy, and they all laugh, 'Cause she calls me "Honey", but they take it hard, 'Cause I dont read the good parts. I fold it up an' put it in my shirt, Pick up my gun an' get back to work. An' it keeps me driving me on, Waiting on letters from home. Dear Son, I know I aint written, But sittin' here tonight, alone in the kitchen, it occurs to me, I might not have said, so Ill say it now: Son, you make me proud. I hold it up and show my buddies, Like we aint scared and our boots aint muddy, but no one laughs, 'Cause there aint nothing funny when a soldier cries. An' I just wipe me eyes. I fold it up an' put it in my shirt, Pick up my gun an' get back to work. An' it keeps me driving me on, Waiting on letters from home. |
