Jesse when you went to war and never did return Summer came and all the girls were sitting on the lawn Looked down at all those letters and I knew that you were gone But I came back, I came back
Brothers inseparable two rabble rousing boys Dreaming all the new mischief and making all the noise When bobby bought that Chevy man well I knew that we were poised But I came back, I came back
And tonight when darkness comes I dream how we were once And tonight when I sleep An angel hums
Jesse when you went to war and never did return Summer came and all the girls were sitting on the lawn Looked down at all those medals and I knew that you were gone But I came back, I came back, I came back
