lyrics

All day long I get these aches in my head
As I'm sitting back in my old hospital bed
I'm just glad I get to see my good-looking nurse
As she takes care of me while I get through the worst

Of my days; but my doctor says
That I'll be fine; it's just a matter of time

And I thank the lord for not taking my life
Because I got to get back to my beautiful wife
In that old southwestern town
And now I ain't got to fight anymore
In that God-for-saken war
Because I've been discharged
And now I've got a metal of my own

It's been three long years since I've been on this land
Risking my life for Uncle Sam
All my friends were killed before my own eyes
Now things don't seem right with my mind

I got to get through these days
But my doctor says
That I'll be fine; it's just a matter of time
