Somerville R.I.P. Songtext
von Fraternity

Overlooking Somerville as far as I could see
A great stretch of land and it all belonged to me
The sun was rising and the trees in all the night
Were leaving in its wake fields of cotton green and white

Home, this is my home
Home, this is my home


Then came winter and I had to go to war
Never once thinking it would ever go this far
Food began to fall and the fields were turned brown
Blue and gray fell everywhere before she went down

Home, this is my home
Home, this is my home

Though not a man of property, I own a general store
But still a man with pride as I was before the war
Men will never see again the glory that was mine
The memory of Somerville will stay for all time

Home, this is my home
Home, this is my home
