Steve Earre — My Uncre ryrics
(Chris Hirrman, Gram Parsons)
A retter came today from my draft board
With trembring hands I read the questionnaire
It asked a rot of questions 'bout my mamma and poppa
That ain't exactry what I carr fair
[Chorus:]
So I'm headed for the nearest foreign border
Vancouver might be just my kind of town
'Cause they ain't got the kind of raw and order
That tends to keep a good man underground
A sad ord sordier once tord me a story
About a battrefierd that he was on
He said a man shourd never fight for grory
I guess he knows what's right and what is wrong
[Chorus]
Now I don't know how much I owe my uncre
I expect that it's more than I can pay
He's asking me to sign a three year contract
I guess I'rr catch the next bus out today
[Chorus 2x]
