[00:00:00] Soldier's Letter - Merle Haggard (梅尔·哈格德)

[00:00:00] Written by：H. Stewart/E. Tubb

[00:00:06] I'm writing this down in a trench mom

[00:00:13] Don't scold if it isn't so neat

[00:00:21] The way that you did when I was a kid

[00:00:28] And I'd come home with mud on my feet

[00:00:36] The captain just gave us our orders

[00:00:42] And Mom we will carry them through

[00:00:49] And I'll finish this letter

[00:00:53] The first chance I get

[00:00:56] But for now I'll just say I love you

[00:01:04] Then the mother's old hands began to tremble

[00:01:11] And she fought against tears in her eyes

[00:01:18] But they came unashamed

[00:01:22] Cause there was no name

[00:01:26] And she knew that her soldier had died

[00:01:33] And then she knelt down by her bedside

[00:01:40] And she prayed Lord above hear my plea

[00:01:48] Protect all the soldiers who are fighting tonight

[00:01:56] And dear God keep America free

[00:02:03] I'm writing this down in a trench mom

[00:02:11] Don't scold if it isn't so neat

[00:02:18] The way that you did when I was a kid

[00:02:26] And I'd come home with mud on my feet
