I said the morning mist is burning slow   Blood on sons and brothers gonna flow   Tomorrow will I live, I just don't know      I said morning comes we march again   Into the fields of the killing man   I don't know where I'm going or just where I been   I been      At times I feel so alone, yeah   Hope to find my way back home   Mama I done asked the Lord   He told me, "Son, no I just don't know"      Harvester of pain   No, I ain't the one to blame   Harvester of pain   I'm caught between the blue and the gray   Blue and gray      Now I said, "Mama I done killed a man"   Was told he wasn't part of the plan   Don't worry none I be getting by best that I can      Oh I said, "Every day's a living hell   And the reaper be weaving his spell"   Now sergeant take me aside   Tell me son, peace ain't what we're here to sell      At times I feel so alone   Hope to find my way back home   Mama I done asked the Lord   He told me, "Son, yeah I just don't know"      Harvester of pain   I ain't the one to blame   Harvester of pain   I'm caught between the blue and the gray      Oh yeah at times I feel so alone   Hope to find my way back home   Mama I done asked the Lord   He told me, "Son, yeah I just don't know, yeah yeah"      Oh harvester of pain   I ain't the one to blame   Oh harvester of pain   I'm caught between the blue and the gray      Harvester of pain   I ain't the one to blame   Harvester of pain   I'm caught between the blue and the gray      Blue and gray   I ain't the one to blame
