They've been fighting that war too long* Won't you send them boys back home They've been away From the ones they love too long I wonder if they know how that feels Up on capitol hill, to hear your best friend say Man, I'm scared to death Just another day as a Soldier draws his last breath Thru the eyes of the wound did you see On the front lines for you and me They pay a cost with everyday there's someone lost Wear and tear don't show Cause every good Soldier knows There's no room, no room for second best Just another day as a Soldier draws his last breath Thru the eyes of the wound did you see On the front lines for you and me
