Copilot - Now & Again (Single Version)

She works late at night
All night, every night
Who has time for a fight at home
Young Billy at home
Always on his own
Daddy left before he was born

Now and again a mother cries
Misses daddy like the olden times
Those times have come and gone
Like the old adage says
"Hers is the hand that rocks your cradle"
You'll cradle till she's dead

Now, Billy's ten years older
He's gonna be a soldier, uh huh
He never knew his father
Not like he'd even bother
He always felt so alone

Now and again a dead-beat cries
Misses son like the olden times
Those times have come and gone
Like mothers always said
"His is the hand that takes"
Takes till the day his hand breaks

Billy's in the trenches
In the trenches, he'll go pa-ra-ba-ba-ba
He'll go pa-ra-ba-ba-ba, till the day is done
He'll go pa-ra-ba-ba-ba, till he gets his pension

Now, Billy's got a family of his own
Scars still stinging from the war
Depression lingers in his home
Steel Reserve can help you forget but can't heal broken bones

Billy remembers the trenches
In the trenches, he'll go pa-ra-ba-ba-ba
He'll go pa-ra-ba-ba-ba, till the day is done
He'll go pa-ra-ba-ba-ba, till he gets his pension
Oh no
