A Veterans Song — текст песни (nazareth)

The bars are crowded with wasted youth

You just went, you didnt know the truth

You dont know that kid when you look back

You remember the music, paint it black



You had a brother in the movement and he burned his card

Hes got a job in the white house, aint life hard

You came back a hero on a stolen horse

You say you dont fit in, you cant stay the course



I may be right, dont care if Im wrong

Its a veterans song

I may be right, dont care if Im wrong

Its a veterans song



The band paraded playing "oh gung ho""

Your country needs you, youve got to go

When you came over they said "soldier go back"

When you came home they put you on the rack



Between agent orange and the jungle and fear

Youre just surviving to get out of here

You smoke some more herb and you keep your head down

Could be your number is on the next round.





(mccafferty, sweet, charlton, agnew)
