Chickamauga
The word itself comes straight from hellChickamauga say it wellChattanooga Tennesseean infernal place..please leave me beSometimes I shake in the middle of the nightand my wife will hold me oh so tightuntil the morning crawls aroundthis quiet little mining townShe'll ask about the things I'd seenthe friends I lost at age nineteenand what I'd done with my own handsthat only a soldier understandsChickamaugaChickamaugawhy won't you go awaywhy won't you go awaywhy won't you go awayfrom hereYou'd think that time is all it takesbut time grows old and te memories acheand wounds that the naked eye can't seefester and push love away from meLetras de cancionesMy children are grown and have gone their wayyears and years of nothing to saythey come home like ghosts and float right pastmyself, my chair, and my whiskey glassIt was 2 days in 1863that took the good from inside of meand turned the world into a fearsome placethat the hand of god could not eraseChickamaugaChickamaugawhy won't you go awaywhy won't you go awaywhy won't you go awayfrom here
