Pearl's Eye View (The Life of Dickey Chapelle)
作词:Nanci Griffith, Maura A. Kennedy
Oh, she was high up there in the air Caught still by a soldier's stare Whenever it was men amongst men Down upon the land
And she followed those Mothers' sons She felt the thunder of their guns From a pearl's eye view Just a camera in her hand
She was born Georgette but the name Didn't suit her well So, she blew out of Wisconsin as Dickey Chapelle
Oh, she flew with a pilot's pride The first witness to either side She carried relief to the lost ones Between the bombs
And we saw it all through her lens Well, she knew she'll go back again When the call rang out Once more from Vietnam
She's been through this before She'll tell you war is hell Her pearl earrings caught the light On Dickey Chapelle

And now, we trace her wings In her footsteps without fear To the front lines where she fell Where she lies still but she's still there
Oh, it was 1965 over Chu Lai in a free fall dive In a dawn patrol to cover The dead zone ground
She tiptoed through the land mines All along the enemy lines But she never saw the one That took her down
Now, she captured The bloody pearls of war so well That war was bound to steal the end
