Chicago Blues Session Volume 3

So Easy To Love You

Music by Gene Martin, BMI; Lyrics by PG Sturges, ASCAP ©2023

there’s a line in the sand
that must not be crossed
heaven will fall
honor will be lost
the streets will run with blood
in our noble sacrifice
says the Minister of War
to the cameras and the lights

all that I can carry
strapped upon my back
life has grown so simple
what I need, what I lack
my future is behind me
in a leather sack
all that I can carry
strapped upon my back

I don’t know the reasons
why we’re pressed to fight
we fought this battle years ago
didn’t get it right
old friends are new enemies
old enemies our friends
the Minister of War
has his good name to defend

all that I can carry
strapped upon my back
life has grown so simple
what I need, what I lack
my future is behind me
in a leather sack
all that I can carry
strapped upon my back

keep my eyes downward
things I will not see
living in this twisted world
in this cruel comedy
one step at a time
is the only way
the Minister of War
says there was no yesterday

all that I can carry
strapped upon my back
life has grown so simple
what I need, what I lack
my future is behind me
in a leather sack
all that I can carry
strapped upon my back
