You're reading this my mama's sittin there

Look's like I only got a one way ticket over here

I sure wish I could give you one more kiss

War was just a game we played when we were kids

Well I'm layin down my gun and hanging up my boots

I'm up here with God and we're both watching over you

So lay me down

In that open field out on the edge of town

And know my soul

Is where my mama always prayed that it would go

And if you're reading this

I'm already home

If you're reading this halfway around the world

I won't be there to see the birth of our little girl

I hope she looks like you

I hope she fights like me

And stands up for the innocent and the weak

I'm layin down my gun and hanging up my boots

Tell dad I don't regret that I followed in his shoes

So lay me down

In that open field out on the edge of town

And know my soul

Is where my mama always prayed that it would go

And if you're reading this

I'm already home

If you're reading this there's gonna come a day

When you'll move on and find someone else and that's ok

Just remember this I'm in a better place

Where soldiers live in peace and angels sing Amazing Grace

So lay me down

In that open field out on the edge of town

And know my soul

Is where my mama always prayed that it would go

And if you're reading this

If you're reading this

I'm already home
