[Verse 1]
If you're reading this, my mama's sittin' there
Looks like I only got a one way ticket over here
Sure wish I could give you one more kiss
And war was just a game we played when we were kids
[Pre-Chorus 1]
And I'm laying down my gun, hanging up boots
I'm up here with God and we're both watching over you
[Chorus]
So lay me down
In that open field out on the edge of town
And know my soul
Is where my mama always prayed
That it would go
And if you're reading this
I'm already home
[Verse 2]
If you're reading this
Half way around the world
I won’t be there to see the birth of our little girl
I hope she looks like you
I hope she fights like me
Stands up for the innocent and the weak
If you're reading this, my mama's sittin' there
Looks like I only got a one way ticket over here
Sure wish I could give you one more kiss
And war was just a game we played when we were kids
[Pre-Chorus 1]
And I'm laying down my gun, hanging up boots
I'm up here with God and we're both watching over you
[Chorus]
So lay me down
In that open field out on the edge of town
And know my soul
Is where my mama always prayed
That it would go
And if you're reading this
I'm already home
[Verse 2]
If you're reading this
Half way around the world
I won’t be there to see the birth of our little girl
I hope she looks like you
I hope she fights like me
Stands up for the innocent and the weak
