Josh Ritter - Girl in the War lyrics

[Josh Ritter - Girl in the War lyrics]

Peter said to Paul, "You know
All those words we wrote
Are just the rules of the game and
The rules are the first to go
But now talking to God is Laurel
Begging Hardy for a gun
I got a girl in the war
Man I wonder what it is we done"

Paul said to Peter
"You got to rock yourself a little harder
Pretend the dove from above is a dragon
And your feet are on fire"
"But, I got a girl in the war, Paul
The only thing I know to do
Is turn up the music and pray
That she makes it through"

Because the keys to the kingdom
Got lost inside the kingdom
And the angels fly around in there


But we can’t see them
I got a girl in the war, Paul
I know that they can hear me yell
If they can’t find a way to help her
They can go to hell
If they can’t find a way to help her
They can go to hell" paul said to Peter
"You got to rock yourself a little harder
Pretend the dove from above is a dragon
And your feet are on fire"
"But, I got a girl in the war, Paul
Her eyes are like champagne
They sparkle, bubble over and
In the morning, all you got is rain
They sparkle, bubble over and
In the morning, all you got is rain
They sparkle, bubble over and
In the morning, all you got is rain"
