Coming Home Soon

Coming Home Soon
Where have all the young men gone?
They’re leaving town one-by-one
Johnny come and get your gun
Father give your on-ly son

Fearlessly they lay down their lives
Son don’t be afraid to die
You’re fighting for the land that you love
Yeah, yeah, fighting for your god up above
When the bullets fall upon you like rain
And the starry night is burst into flame
Remember you’re the few, you’re the brave
Remember what you’re fighting to save
CHORUS:
I know, you’ll be coming home soon
The war is over, it was on the evening news
Nobody’s winning when it’s life we have to lose
I know, you’ll be coming home soon, coming home soon.
Victory can be bittersweet
Insurrection in the street
It never comes without a price
And never without sacriface
The suicidal bombs in their cars
wrap em up in stripes and stars
Johnny boy is comin’ home
For a soldier’s burial

When the bullets fall around you like rain
And the starry night is burst into flame
Remember you’re the few, you’re the brave
Remember what you’re fighting to save
CHORUS:
I know you’ll be coming home soon
The war is over, it was on the evening news
Nobody’s winning when it’s life we have to lose
I know, you’ll be coming home soon, coming home soon.
I know you’ll be coming home soon.. coming home soon
The war is over, it was on the evening news
Nobody’s winning when it’s life we have to lose
I know, you’ll be coming home soon, coming home soon.
Coming home soon…
