If I make it out of this desert sand, I tell you right where I’ll be
On a mountain side with the leaves a’ changing, in the hills of Tennessee
I want to smell rich dark earth, and soak my feet in the creek
That dream seems so far away, I might die by the end of the week
Give me tomorrow Lord
Oh give me one more day
I got nothing to bargain with
Not even sure I know how to pray
But I know I wanna go home
And I want to hold her hand
Give me tomorrow Lord
Let me grow old and be a man
The Captain said tomorrow, be ready for an attack
They’re coming for the infidel, and a target’s on our back
That’s fine with me, I’m fightin’ mad, since Gunny fell in May
Let me fight one more time, and settle the score, but live to see another day
Give me tomorrow Lord
Oh give me one more day
I got nothing to bargain with
Not even sure I know how to pray
But I know I wanna go home
And I want to hold her hand
Give me tomorrow Lord
Let me grow old and be a man
My ears are ringin’ and the smoke is lingerin’, and Smitty won’t wake up
I’m in over my head and Johnson’s dead, and I don’t know if I’ll make it
But Doc is here and CAAT Platoon, and looks like there is a chance
No question now, my time has come, and I gotta be a man
Give me tomorrow Lord
Oh give me one more day
I got nothing to bargain with
Not even sure I know how to pray
But I know I wanna go home
And I want to hold her hand
Give me tomorrow Lord
Let me grow old and be a man
I fought so hard, I’m a young old man
I want her and a piece of land
Give me tomorrow Lord…and keep me in Your hand.
