Bill Miller - Different Drum lyrics
David had an eagle tatooed on his right arm 
 He got it back in high school, when we were working on the farm 
 He's still got that arrowhead we found when we were kids 
 And I knew we would be like brothers, well just as long as we both lived 
 I still got my memories of the night we jumped the fence 
 Stole you uncle's pickup truck, drove it up around the bend 
 You were the handsome cowboy, I the trusty brave 
 We were looking for some fallen angel waiting to be saved 
 Well for some it just comes so easy 
 For others seems its bread in the bones 
 But we danced to the beat of a different drum 
 Then the one we heard at home 
 I went to the mountains, I was reaching for the sun 
 I was on fire for leaving, this angry battle I thought I'd won 
 David dug his trenches, he fought his war at home 
 My mountain soon was crumbling, God I was all alone Bill Miller - Different Drum - http://motolyrics.com/bill-miller/different-drum-lyrics.html
 Well for some it just comes so easy 
 And for others its bread in their bones 
But I danced to the beat of a different drum 
 Then the one I heard at home 
 It was years before the smoke cleared, I could come back home again 
 Look my father in the eyes, I could finally let him in 
 For he was not the enemy, no the enemy was within 
 And I knew the day they understood because David was my friend 
 Well for some you know it comes so easy 
 And for others seems its bread in their bones 
 But I still danced to the beat of a different drum 
 Then the one I heard at home 
 I will always dance to the beat of a different drum 
 For the warrior has come home
