Dirt In A Hole Lyrics - Robert Plant

The preacher bowed and turned to go 

He threw some dirt into a hole 

He wasn't needed anymore, oh 

He shrugged and cast away the cold 

He rearranged his preachers clothes 

The word of God is all he knows 

Precious boy so young and fair 

Guarding castles in the air 

Pretty flowers in sweet array 

Picked to die and fade away 

(Message from heaven) 

Sun in the sky 

(Message from heaven) 

News from on high

God bless the solder and his gun 

Small sacrifice then justice done 

He's every broken mother's son 

Pretty flowers in sweet array 

Picked to die and fade away

Sun in the sky

(Message from heaven) 

Sun in the sky 

(Message from heaven) 

Oh, yeah 

Message from heaven 

Message from heaven

He threw some words into the air 

He spoke the pain we all must share 

How we will meet again out there 

Precious boy so young and fair 

Guarding castles in the air 

Pretty flowers in sweet array 

Picked to die and fade away 

Precious boy so young and fair 

Guarding castles in the air 

Pretty flowers in sweet array 

Picked to die and fade away 

Oh, ooh 

Ah, ooh
