Mad Painter - Soldier Boy

Soldier boy
Would you come in and close the door
Is this the war worth fighting for? (fighting for)

Soldier boy
Your picture in a high school book
Come in and have another look (another look)

Soldier boy
Your daughter in a pretty dress
She is your sweetheart, your princess
There's no daylight down in the trench
Only dead bodies' foul stench

I don't wanna be a soldier, I don't wanna kill nobody
I don't wanna be a soldier, I don't wanna kill nobody

Soldier boy
Ready to kill, they're in your face
Deserting battle a disgrace (a disgrace)

Soldier boy
Your daggers, bullets and your gun
Don't count your lives, you've got just one (got just one)

Soldier boy
Your mother's crying at your grave
Your sergeant's note says you were brave
Where you came back from there's no peace
There's only carnage and disease

I don't wanna be a soldier, I don't wanna kill nobody
I don't wanna be a soldier, I don't wanna kill nobody

I don't wanna be a soldier, I don't wanna kill nobody
I don't wanna be a soldier, I don't wanna kill nobody
