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

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
