lyrics

a soldier told his story, in camouflage
a little boy wondered who he was hiding from, there on the bus
he told of a woman who had his baby, and left his with his dad
his dad's girl won't tell him how much, but he wants to pay them back

my love, she came to me last night, she told me everything
the father, he won custody, 'cos she ain't been the same since the baby
and those bombs will fall on anyone, who's lost faith in god
and she got her cocaine, straight from me

a few soldiers, they made a vow, for the war's end
they'd kill me and that whore, to show their love
and those bullets land right where you want, if you've got faith in steel
my love, she came to me last night, and it's good, yeah it's good.
