[00:57.36] | Who fought a losing war |
[00:58.80] | on a foreign shore |
[01:00.70] | to find his country didn’t want him back |

[01:52.90] | I got the call last Christmas Eve |
[01:56.11] | and they told me the news |
[02:00.23] | I tried all night not to break down n cry |
[02:03.44] | as the tears rolled down my face |
[02:07.40] | I felt so cold n empty |
[02:10.62] | like a lost soul out of place |
[02:14.25] | and a Mirror mirror on the wall |

[03:36.14] | sleepin’ on a cold dark street |
[03:38.66] | like bodies in a open grave |
[03:42.32] | underneath the broken old neon sign |
[03:45.87] | used to read “Jesus saves” |
[03:49.43] | A mile away way live the rich folk |
[03:52.81] | and I see how they’re livin’ it up |
[03:56.37] | but while the poor they eat from hand to mouth |
[04:00.05] | the rich are drinkin’ from a golden cup |
[04:03.52] | and it just makes me wonder |
