Текст песни: Soldier's Song + перевод

I met my enemy today

Baby takes the little one out to play

Enemy shot two of my buddies down

Baby rides the little one on the merry-go-round

By my post, I’m standing guard

Baby hopes for roses in the front yard

I don’t know my enemy’s name

Baby takes the little one to a baseball game

I am in this God forsaken place

While baby wipes the dirt from the little one’s face

Ten years old in the killing fields

Baby’s planning the weekly meals

Bodies in a body ditch

Baby’s got supper to fix

My brother’s got a hole in his head

Baby gets the little one ready for bed

Today I shot my enemy

Baby gives the little one a hug for me

Both my buddy’s legs got blown off

Baby tends to the little one’s cough

I stare down at the barrel of a gun

Baby’s going out to have some fun

And I hear ringing in my ear

Baby’s face is all wet with tears

I can’t look my enemy in the eye

Baby tells the little one daddy’s gone bye-bye

Today I took a bullet in the heart

Now 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 and took my body down

Baby rides the little one on the merry-go-round
