lyrics
To my little boy, unborn and safe
As you grow old, as you will some day
Remember the words your daddy said today
Yea your momma had quite the poker face
Your daddy tried to walk as a man of faith
But steeped in so much disgrace,
my boy that's how you were made
Keep in your mind these words
Remember the wars and the gold your fathers fought for
And carry on this old kentucky soul
O my sweet boy
With eyes as dark as undrank wine
It was for clay that your grandpa mined
But your mamma Sue couldn't make him mind
O and yes he sinned! Yet still a Saint
For his old heart it never grew faint
I wish you would learn from him my son
This war is never won
