It's just been six weeks now since I left my home town Since they called out my number and my turn it came 'round Now I've a gun in my hand, this land to set free Told to fight till I'm dead for God and my country Oh, my father he told me it'll be a proud day When you fight for your country in a land far away He said to make all my foes bend down on one knee And to come home a hero for God and my country To all you dictators say I've had my fill One of the commandments is that you shouldn't kill And this land isn't mine, it's not hard to see So how can I be fightin' for God and my country? Let me ask you one question and tell me no lies Is it worth all this money for so many to die? Or are you so blind that you don't want to see That I'm not really fighting for God or my country?
