1
During the Cold War
2
My daddy sat at the kitchen table
3
Smokin' cigarettes
4
Starin' out the window
5
During the Cold war
6
He had grease on his coveralls
7
And lines beneath his eyes
8
Where the bombs had fallen
9
He'd drink a couple a beer
10
We'd listen to Johnny Cash on the radio
11
During the Cold War
12
We had a one story house
13
On Mercury and Vine
14
And the blue glow of the television was on all the time
15
His head would nod as he'd fall asleep
16
Upon the kitchen table
17
My mother would clear the dishes
18
During the Cold War
19
We were ten seconds away from blowin' up the world
20
He'd fix those old machines
21
And worry 'bout his sons and my mother never drove a car
22
During the Cold War
23
And when it finally ended
24
There was no parade of heroes
25
There was just a quiet sigh
26
And life went on
27
My mother went away
28
She never came back again
29
And things were never the same as they were
30
During the Cold War
