Home, was all we'd known Father's field and calloused heels Friend, I called you friend Oh but life was simple then ♪ We grew, to disagree Took your portion and packed your things And held, your freedom high Above health and wealth And life itself ♪ Remember us, out on the frozen pond? I held you up You were the frightened one ♪ Through years, the rumours grew Of a brother returning soon ♪ I was wrong yesterday Oh I was wrong yesterday Come wash my war paint away Come wash my war paint away Come wash my war paint away Come wash my war paint away Come wash my war paint away Come wash my war paint away
