Trace Adkins Songs About Me Arlington I never thought that this is where Id settle down I thought Id 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 Theres 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 Were proud of your son And Im proud to be on this peaceful piece of property Im on sacred ground, and Im in the best of company Im thankful for those thankful for the things Ive done I can rest in peace, Im 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 Im proud to be on this peaceful piece of property Im on sacred ground, and Im in the best of company Im thankful for those thankful for the things Ive done I can rest in peace, Im 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 Were thankful for those thankful for the things weve done We can rest in peace, cause we are the chosen ones We made it to Arlington Yeah, dust to dust Dont cry for us We made it to Arlington |
