Trace Adkins Songs About Me Arlington I never thought that this is where I�d settle down I thought I�d die an old man back in my hometown They gave me this plot of land Me and some other men For a job well done There�s a big white house, sits on a hill, just up the road The man inside, he cried the day they brought me home They folded up a flag And told my mom and dad �We�re proud of your son� And I�m proud to be on this peaceful piece of property I�m on sacred ground, and I�m in the best of company I�m thankful for those thankful for the things I�ve done I can rest in peace, I�m one of the chosen ones I made it to Arlington I remember Daddy brought me here when I was eight We searched all day to find out where my granddad lay When we finally found that cross He said �Son, this is what it costs To keep us free� Now here I am, a thousand stones away from him He recognized me on the first day I came in And it gave me a chill When he clicked his heels And saluted me And I�m proud to be on this peaceful piece of property I�m on sacred ground, and I�m in the best of company I�m thankful for those thankful for the things I�ve done I can rest in peace, I�m one of the chosen ones I made it to Arlington And every time I hear twenty-one guns I know they brought another hero home to us We�re thankful for those thankful for the things we�ve done We can rest in peace, �cause we are the chosen ones We made it to Arlington Yeah, dust to dust Don�t cry for us We made it to Arlington |
