For freedom, sweet freedom! Again!
Tell me the story my brother,
Of the soldiers who all stood there tall,
Defending the way we live and let live,
Some went down, Once and for all.
When duty calls you my brother,
When you go to fight and die,
Will the lord recieve as he sent you,
Alone, alive, and with pride.
I've have noticed something strange, brother,
Please tell it is not true,
When you look in the eyes of thine enemy,
Can't you see yourself staring at you?
But I have a small question, my brother,
Is it true they kill with our guns?
We gave them the way, Never heeding the day,
When they'd turn and kill our loved ones.
I know with my soul terror's evil,
But dear god, who will check up on us?
We bought the guns, let them kill women for fun,
Is infinite justice a must?
Autumn leaves fall now, my brother,
Yellow, and red and gold,
Together as one, they die so that spring may come,
Well grow as God has us told.
Dear Lord please help me say this,
I really don't know what to do,
Why do we help them kill others,
Just to get mad when they kill us too.
Tell me again, my Big Brother,
Fill my eyes with smoke and I'll cry,
Cry for the loss and the pain and the gain
Of your dollars when innocents die.
So tell me a story my brother,
Sing to me just once again,
Of the people who died,
Saving our lives,
For freedom, sweet freedom! Again!
For freedom, sweet freedom! Again!
