Bugler Lyrics & Tabs by The Flying Burrito Brothers
Bugler
guitar chords lyrics
Murray
Back when Cattle Creek used to sing
Its waters were sweet and its banks were green
And sunny days went on forever.
Me and ol' Bugler we went wild
Blue tick hound and redneck child
We thought we were birds of a feather.
Ah, the fish would bite, my, how they'd fight
We'd catch them possums in the pale moonlight
For Ma, just to please her.
Bugler's voice like Gabriel's horn
Up in the cypress and down through the corn
Golden sounds, yes to treasure.
Bugler, Bugler, bless your hide
Jesus gonna take you for a chariot ride
Golden sounds, yes to treasure.
Bugler, Bugler, bless your hide
Jesus gonna take you for a chariot ride
Say goodbye, say goodbye.
One day Ma she brought the news
She said: 'I hear young Bugler's done paid his dues'
'He's been hit down, yes on that highway'.
Dry your eyes and stand up straight
Bugler's got a place at the pearly gates
Say goodbye sugar, oh say goodbye.
Bugler, Bugler, bless your hide
Jesus gonna take you for a chariot ride
Say goodbye, say goodbye.
Bugler, Bugler, bless your hide
Jesus gonna take you for a chariot ride
Say goodbye, oh say goodbye.
Mmm ...
