THE SONG
Letter From America
Song by The Proclaimers
Written by: Charles Stobo Reid / Craig Morris Reid
When you go will you send back a letter from America?
Take a look up the rail track from Miami to Canada
Well broke off from my work the other day
Spent the evening thinking about all the blood that flowed away
Across the ocean to the second chance
I wonder how it go on when it reached the promised land
