Lyrics
soldier blue can you hear the call of your nation
pick up your gun march past crowds in celebration
and so you go a virgin for your king and country
don't be afraid she's had so many men before
and your mama cries
Don't fight for your country to die in the sands
You were sent over there to kill the other man
soldier blue
soldier blue
soldier blue can you hear the fear that you cause in them
why don't you take a look behind and sees whats right or wrong
but I'm telling you it's done
Don't fight for your country to die in the sands
You were sent over there to kill the other man
Don't fight for your country to die in the sands
You were sent over there to kill the other man
Soldier blue
Soldier blue
