lyrics

How Wrong Is The War, Mother?

(chorus)
How wrong is the war, mother?
how strong are them soldiers
fighting their way to the promiseland
of honor and pride and glory?

It's the same old fight we've been having for years
it starts and it stops and it cries and it jeers
the flag it goes up and the flag it goes down
while the political people stand around.

(chorus)

It's the same old ground we've braved for years
with each war the blood it sinks deeper and deeper
into the ground and the thoughts of the ones
who now fear to hear that gunfire sound.

(chorus)

It's the same old glory we've carried for years
forgiven heroes forget their fears
for they've killed and they've cried and they've danced in blood
while political people stood around.

(chorus)

This is the only place you will find all of my albums. I have most of them on YouTube Music (Topic Channel) and Spotify now as well. However, music is not free to produce and neither is rent and groceries.
