Midnight At The Old Soldiers' Home Lyrics by Erin Hay


Erin Hay Lyrics

( Lonnie Ratliff & Erin Hay )

He Woke Up In A Cold Sweat Now He Can't Go Back To Sleep
It's That Nightmare From Normandy When They Stormed The Beach
In The Middle Of The Night That Memory's Bright As Day
A Cross That He Still Bears, A Debt That That He Can't Pay

He Was Known As Sergeant Luther Tibbs In June Of 44
And He's Still Haunted By The Ones Who Fell On That Shore
Well For Some The Battle's Over But For Luther It Lives On
In A Rockin' Chair At Midnight At The Old Soldiers' Home

It's Midnight At The Old Soldiers' Home
He's Sitting There In His Rockin' Chair, Rockin' All Alone
And Chances Are He'll Still Be There At Dawn
It's Midnight At The Old Soldiers' Home

Some Ladies Came To Visit From The Southern Baptist Church
One Gave Luther Butterscotch And One Read A Bible Verse
In The Seasons Of His Life Luther's Late Into The Fall
He's Known Love And He's Known Friends And He's Outlived 'Em All

[Thanks to Lonnie Ratliff for lyrics]
