歌词
Captain Collier came home
He'd been fighting the war
And I guess that he thought he'd return
As a hero and more
And he walked down the streets
Of the old hometown
And he saw how it is around here now
Well, Captain Collier had to call
Far too many girls
For a date that night
See, all the girls had gone out
With their long haired boys
Captain Collier he cried
"Well, what the hell have I been fighting for?"
Oh, soldier, it's for you
We want to bring you home
We want to hold you in our arms
Come back and keep us warm
PFC Manny Stein
Had been drafted and gone
He'd been told that only cowards would say no
He came home and called some old friends
They'd resisted the draft
And they both were in prison
And their wives and their kids
Were all skinny and having a bad time
And PFC Stein
He remembered the men
Called political prisoners
You know where and when
And he learned that the lines
Are tapped all the time now
And he's wondering if maybe
His bravery's needed at home now
Yeah, soldier, we're afraid
We're not just being fools
We're gassed and beaten here at home
We've got to change the rules
Corporal Thomas McCann
As a three year Marine
Someone told him he'd better join up
It would make him a man
He came home and to the park he went
And he sat down on a bench
And a dungaree girl told him
He'd been a man all along
And he looked at the sign
That she carried in her hand
It said "Fuck the War and Bring Our Brothers Home"
And Corporal McCann
He looks into her eyes
And I believe that he's begun to understand now
Oh, soldier, it's for you
We want to bring you home
We need you to support us here
Come back and lend an eye
Hey, bring our brothers home
Hey, bring our brothers home
Hey, bring our brothers home
Hey, bring our brothers home
Hey, bring our brothers home
