we're at war all the papers say we will win i read today we are strong it wasn't us we are right who started this? leave your work i just left school leave your home i am no fool take up arms it left me strong sound alarms the school bell rings sons of men who stand like gods we give life to feed the cause and run to ground our heathen foe our name will never die this time will be forever
join up here i wave goodbye we need you oh my breast sighs have no fear i must try god will be with braver men take the vow i know its right praise the flag the good fight we're at war i'm on my way we will win why do i pray ? i wait here in this hole playing poker with my soul i hold the rifle close to me it lights the way to keep me free
if i die in a combat zone box me up and ship me home if i die and still come home lay me where the rose is sown sons of men who stand like gods we give life to feed the cause and run to ground our heathen foe our name will never die this time will be forever -from the album 'steeltown' by big country lyrics written by Stuart Adamson of big countryy
