Leatherneck Lyrics - The Big Dirty - Every Time I Die

Marched from a burning ship into a rained out parade 

With a bottle and a Bible the dregs are armed to the teeth 

We traded distinction and praise for the tedious claim 

That we were wed in the trenches 

While college boys pine for loveless exchange 

Now we carry fragments from detonated eyes 

Embedded under our bones 

We've spilled blood for the sake of fitting skin to the frame 

But our moneys is no good here 

And our memorial has veered off the road

The locals will bury my wandering eyes 

At the docks of the potters field 

Where the rifles of ranking men 

Are equipped with 21 silencers 

At 'em boys, give her the gun 

At 'em boys, give her the gun 

I'm the richest man in town 

I'm the richest man in town 

Faith, stand down give your wings 

To the boredom that resurrected my soul 

Crash the car if the motor won't turn over 

Glory be to God

Jumped from the disloyal waves back up to the bridge 

Renounced the warmth of the turbulent grave 

I found blood on my lips from a covetous kiss 

And I hope that my home tips its glass to it
