The Milk Carton Kids - The Ash&Clay
The swing sets are empty
Like dirt turned the dark of the night
The center of this town
It used to whirl
in the glow of twilight
It might look like god's away
with all the trouble these days
We'll come home
before the girls are grown
We're coming home tonight
What oh have we done to run
this country into such a sight
Stolen from our brothers like
we couldn't find a fair enough fight
You wait on promise you will say
Won't forsake the ash and clay
Let's come home
before the girls are grown
Let's come home to fight
I know we want whats best for us
I know it has to come at a price
I also know the trouble
that you find when you stop being nice
You look around you one day
What you once knew didn't stay
Let's come home
before the girls are grown
Let's come home tonight
Have you ever asked a man
To take your place
at the head of the table
You could shed away your shame
if in the end
You found you simply weren't able
You might find out you could stay
On the ash and on the clay
Come on home before the girls are grown
Come on home tonight
Come on home before the girls are grown
Come on home to fight
