Lowly Deserter Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Lowly deserter, sing that old song
And sing a new one for the men
Still in battle, far from heaven
Raise your voice up and sing to them
[Verse 2]
Lowly, lowly, you must be lonesome
Take a hard look at yourself
And your brother still in battle
Sing their praises, or don’t sing again
[Chorus]
When that feeling comes to find you
Don’t deny you never ran
And when that feeling comes to take you
Take you walking the streets of hell
[Chorus]
When that feeling comes to find you
Don’t deny you never ran
And when that feeling comes to take you
Take you walking the streets of hell
