Arlington (In The Style Of Trace Adkins)
- Done Again
I never thought that this is
Where I'd settle down
I thought I'd die an old man
Back in my hometown
They gave me this plot of land
Me and some other men
For a job well done
There's a big white house
Sits on a hill just up the road
The man inside he cried the day
They brought me home
They folded up a flag
And told my mom and dad
We're proud of your son
And I'm proud to be on
This peaceful piece of property
I'm on sacred ground and
I'm in the best of company
I'm thankful for those thankful
For the things I've done
I can rest in peace
I'm one of the chosen ones
I made it to Arlington
I remember Daddy brought me
Here when I was eight
We searched all day to find out
Where my granddad lay
When we finally found that cross
He said Son this is what it costs
To keep us free
Now here I am a thousand stones
Away from him
He recognized me
On the first day I came in
And it gave me a chill
When he clicked his heels
And saluted me
And I'm proud to be on
This peaceful piece of property
I'm on sacred ground and
I'm in the best of company
And I'm thankful for those
Thankful for the things I've done
I can rest in peace
I'm one of the chosen ones
I made it to Arlington
And every time I hear twenty one guns
I know they brought another hero home to us
We're thankful for those thankful
For the things we've done
We can rest in peace 'cause
We are the chosen ones
We made it to Arlington
Yeah dust to dust
Don't cry for us
We made it to Arlington
