Verse 1] Dear brother as I write you I'm a thousand miles from home I'm thinkin' of that yellow barn we used to call our own Things have sure been better but at least I know you're there Still holdin' up our family like your own cross to bear So take care while I'm gone, I won't be here too long
[Chorus] The sun beats down out on the yard, and rain falls on the ground And life goes on beyond these walls, but I can't hear a sound Don't let it bring you down, soon enough I'll be back around
[Verse 2] I've spent so many nights alone and days feel just the same Tried steerin' clear of politics but they're part of the game I take no sense of pride in all the things I've had to do Got to be strong to survive and live to see my sentence through So write me when you can and stay true to your plan
[Chorus] The sun beats down out on the yard, and rain falls on the ground Well life goes on beyond these walls, but I can't hear a sound Don't let it bring you down The sun beats down out on the yard, and rain falls on the ground And life goes on beyond these walls, but I can't hear a sound Don't let it bring you down, soon enough I'll be back around The sun beats down out on the yard, and rain falls on the ground And life goes on beyond these walls, but I can't hear a sound Don't let it bring you down, soon enough I'll be back aroundTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
