Gotta admit I am a Browncoat

I love this show. I loved the music and this song by Michelle Dockery says it all.

Mal's Song

When the stars shine bright through the engine's trail

And the dust of another world drops behind

When my ship is free of the open sky

That's a damn good day to my way of mind

There's a barren planet you never can leave

There's a rocky valley where we lost a war

There's a cross once hung round a soldier's neck

There's a man's faith died on Serenity's floor

But I stood my ground and I'll fly once more

It's the last oath that I ever swore

Chorus: So, take my love, take my land

Take me where I cannot stand

I don't care, I'm still free

You can't take the sky from me

Take me out into the black

Tell 'em I ain't comin' back

Burn the land and boil the sea

You can't take the sky from me

You can't take the sky from me

When you see a man and he's standin' alone

Well you might just take him for an easy mark

And there's many a man has tried his hand

And there's worse than wolves in the borderland dark

From the savage men to the government hounds

Try to take what's yours and tear you through

Ah, but them that run with me's got my back

It's a fool don't know that his family's his crew

Don't you tell me what I cannot do

Don't you think I've got to run from you



(Chorus)

When you've walked my road and you've seen what I've seen

Well you won't go talkin' 'bout righteous men

You'll know damn well why I want to keep to my sky

Never cry 'neath nobody's heel again

I've seen torment raked 'cross innocent souls

Seen sane men mad and good men die

I've been hounded, hated, married and tricked

I've been tortured, cheated, shot, and tied

You won't see no tears when I say goodbye

I've still got my family and my Firefly

(Chorus)
