The Flying Burrito Brothers - Bugler 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 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 ...
