Soldier Boy Lyrics - In The Ever - Mason Jennings

I was born on a railroad track 

With the weight of the world strapped to my back 

Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy 

Looking for a life in a graveyard town 

If you never get lost, you never get found 

Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy 

Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy 

I fell in love with an impossible girl 

She was my breath in this strangled world 

Born to be a soldier boy, born to be soldier boy 

She broke my heart with my best friend's name 

Now my mind still works, but it's not the same 

Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy 

Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

We go bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, ticky, ticky 

Bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, lo, lo, lo, lo 

Bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, ticky, ticky 

Bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, lo, lo, lo, lo 

So many people wanna watch things grow 

Either they're blind or they just don't know 

Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy 

My daddy was done before he turned nineteen 

My momma was run like a fast machine 

Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy 

So I cross my heart and I hope to die 

Like an aeroplane, baby, coming out of the sky 

Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy 

Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy 

We go bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, ticky, ticky 

Bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, lo, lo, lo, lo 

Bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, ticky, ticky 

Bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, lo, lo, lo, lo
