Love Is A Never Ending War (D. Blackwell)
Well I dozed off in the back of the bus
To the groan of the Greyhounds throttle
And I woke to crack of a paper sack
And a cork poppin' from a bottle
I tell you son the old man said
It was hell in world war two
As he rolled up his pant leg
I saw the wood that filled his shoe
The younger man who followed him in opened up his vest
Showed the older soldier where he caught one in the chest
Both of them had purple hearts for the hell that they've been through
Well I don't have no purple heart mine's just black and blue
Chorus:
Oh love is a never ending war
March me into action
And we'll train for what's in store
You win some and you lose some
But I believe in what i'm fightin' for
Oh love is a never ending war
They where half-way through that bottle
And they where gettin' high
I never fought in those two wars
But Lord my throat was dry
So I showed them scars and stitches
Inflicted by Maria
But I didn't think that would give me a drink
So I blamed it on Korea
I parted my hair and I showed them where
I got shrapnel from a grenade
I just couldn't tell it was where Annabelle
Put a glas of lemonade
How that I've been tortured by the blade of a bajonet
And I never forget that hot August night
And the fingernails of Jeanet
Chorus
As I neared my destination I saw tears well in their eyes
Partly from the drinkin' but mostly from my lies
And they stood up to salute me
As I stepped down from the bus
And out of the open window they yelled
Give her hell for us
Chorus
David Allan Coe è un cantautore e chitarrista statunitense nato nel 1939, considerato uno dei pilastri della musica country outlaw degli anni '70. Conosciuto per il suo stile diretto, le canzoni provocatorie e la personalità irriverente, Coe ha sfidato le convenzioni del genere country tradizionale, abbracciando temi controversi come l'alcolismo, la violenza e la vita al limite. Tra i suoi brani più famosi figurano "You Never Even Call Me By My Name", "Longhaired Redneck" e "The Ride". Coe ha collaborato con artisti di spicco come Willie Nelson e Johnny Cash, contribuendo a definire l'estetica del country outlaw. La sua influenza si estende fino ai giorni nostri, ispirando generazioni di musicisti country che hanno seguito le sue orme.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
