Soldier's Song
Lyricist:Lucinda Williams
I met my enemy today Baby sends the little one out to play Enemy shot until my body's down Baby rides the little one on the merry-go-round
By my post, I'm standin' guard And baby hopes for roses in the front yard I don't know my enemy's name Baby takes the little one to the baseball game
I'm on this godforsaken place Baby washes the dirt off the little one's face Ten year olds in the killing fields Baby's planning her weekly meals
Bodies in body ditch Baby's got a supper to fix My buddy's got a hole in his head Baby's got the little one ready for bed
Today I shot my enemy Baby gives the little one a hug for me Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Both my buddies' legs got blown off Baby tends to the little one's cough
I stare down the barrel of a gun Baby's goin' out to have some fun I hear ringin' in my ears Baby's face is all wet with tears
I hear echoes of shots Baby's only thinkin' sweet thoughts Why in the hell did they send me here to fight? Baby kisses my picture and turns off the light
I can't look my enemy in the eye Baby tells the little one, 'Daddy's gone bye-bye' Today I took a bullet through the heart Baby's gonna have to make a brand new start
I met my enemy today Baby sends the little one out to play Enemy shot 'til my body's down Baby rides the little one on the merry-go-round
