Lyrics
"Dont Count Me Out" A young man of 23, goes off to war Rice patties and a world of pain, he'd never seen before Pinned down and scard to death, he only had a prayer But he carried wounded out one by one, till they were safe from there, he said, Dont count me out, until I'm dead and gone Dont tell me that I can't cuz I'll prove you wrong To give up without a fight, just ain't what I'm about And when it all comes down to sink or swim boy Dont count me out An old man to most he meets, to me he's my grandpa He's still walking with that same ol'limp, tobacco in his jaw He hides his medals on closet shelf, cuz he doesn't like to boast And he dont talk much but when he does, his wisdom matters most Cuz he says Dont count me out, until I'm dead and gone Dont tell me that I cant cuz I'll prove you wrong To give up without a fight, just aint what I'm about And when it all comes down to sink or swim girl Dont count me out Time weathers all it touches, leaves just shades of gray Grandpa once was young, but time took that away I guess he's fought for most his life, and never once gave in The enemy now has no face, looks like it's time to fight again A small room on the 18th floor, darkness dims the view He lays quietly as doctors say theres nothing left to do The cancer spread too quickly and most would now be dead Grandpa smiled like many times before, sat up straight and he said Dont count me out, until I'm dead and gone Dont tell me that I cant cuz I might prove you wrong And if the Lords needs a hand in heaven, I'll help him theres no doubt But until I'm standing at those pearly gates......well..... Dont count me out Dont count me out Copywrite@2012 Gwendlyn Kay, Marty Moss & Doug DeForest
