Текст Montgomery Gentry – Didn’t I (20 Years Of Hits Version)

Didn’t I make you proud
Go and lay my life down
When you called my name
I thought I stood for something

Now being back should be so simple
But I keep getting these mixed signals
From everyone
Why do folks sit and judge me,
Who ain’t seen what I seen,
Or did what I’ve done?

Didn’t I burn?
Didn’t I bleed enough for you?
I faced your fears
Felt pain so you won’t have to
Didn’t I do my best,
And wasn’t home here when I left?

I’ve seen boys fall to pieces
Grown men cry out for Jesus
Till they’re black and blue
I thought God was on our side
Weren’t we supposed to be the good guys,
That would never lose?

‘Cause I don’t see no ticker tape
Or five mile parade
Saying «Thank you, son»
Just folks that sit and judge me
Who ain’t seen what I’ve seen
Or did what I’ve done

Didn’t I burn?
Didn’t I bleed enough for you?
I faced your fears
Felt pain so you won’t have to
Didn’t I do my best,
And wasn’t home here when I left?

I pledge allegiance to the flag
