Pearl Jam - Yellow Ledbetter/The Star-Spangled Banner (July 23, 200) lyrics
[Pearl Jam - Yellow Ledbetter/The Star-Spangled Banner July 23, 200 lyrics]
Unsealed on a porch a letter sat
Then you said, I wanna leave it again
Once I saw her on a beach of weathered sand
And on the sand I wanna leave it again, yeah
On a weekend wanna wish it all away
And they called and I said that
I want what I said and then I call out again
And the reason, oughtta leave her calm
I know i said
I don't know whether I'm the boxer or the bag
Oh yeah, can you see them out on the porch
Yeah but they don't wave i see them
Round the front way and I know and I know
I don't want to stay
Make me cry
I see I don't know, there's something else
I wanna drum it all away oh, I said, I don't
I don't know whether I'm the boxer or the bag
Oh yeah, can you see them out on the porch
Yeah but they don't wave i see them
Round the front way and I know and I know
I don't want to stay
O say can you see by the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed at
The twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars
Through the perilous fight
O'er the ramparts we watched
Were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket's red glare
The bombs bursting in air
Gave proof through the night that
Our flag was still there
O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and
The home of the brave
Then you said, I wanna leave it again
Once I saw her on a beach of weathered sand
And on the sand I wanna leave it again, yeah
On a weekend wanna wish it all away
And they called and I said that
I want what I said and then I call out again
And the reason, oughtta leave her calm
I know i said
I don't know whether I'm the boxer or the bag
Oh yeah, can you see them out on the porch
Yeah but they don't wave i see them
Round the front way and I know and I know
I don't want to stay
Make me cry
I see I don't know, there's something else
I wanna drum it all away oh, I said, I don't
I don't know whether I'm the boxer or the bag
Oh yeah, can you see them out on the porch
Yeah but they don't wave i see them
Round the front way and I know and I know
I don't want to stay
O say can you see by the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed at
The twilight's last gleaming?
Whose broad stripes and bright stars
Through the perilous fight
O'er the ramparts we watched
Were so gallantly streaming?
And the rocket's red glare
The bombs bursting in air
Gave proof through the night that
Our flag was still there
O say does that star-spangled banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and
The home of the brave
