Civil War - Ronnie Milsap

It’s another day of blue and gray

Since we made our home a battleground

We’ve drawn the line

You’re on the north side

For now, the south side bedroom’s mine

Well, it’s sister against brother

Friend against lover

It’s sad to say but pride’s the tie that binds

Tell me, what are we fighting for

Nobody’s gonna win this civil war

The state of our union

Is one of confusion

We’re throwin' words like ragin' cannonballs

And, there’s no mistaking

It’s our own lives we’re taking

We’ve let our hearts become stone walls

And, we’ll never surrender

So we might as well just end here

And declare our independence once and for all

Tell me what are we fighting for

Nobody’s gonna win this civil war

Tonight Atlanta’s burning

Precious memories are going up in flames

Where once stood pillars of strength

Only ashes remain

Oh it’s sister against brother

Friend against lover

Who’d have ever thought forever’d end this way

Tell me, what are we fighting for

Nobody’s gonna win this civil war

Oh, tell me what we’re fighting for

Nobody’s gonna win this civil war…
