I'm a soldier on the field
Fighting for you
Fighting for me
You can see it on our faces
Like the bullets leave tracers
You can feel it for real
You can't imagine the pain of my babies so far away
So far from my home
When they coming home?
When they leaving that place?
See their lover's face again
Kid will see his daddy's face again
When they coming home?
Lord, shed some grace
See their lover's face again
Kid will see his daddy's face again
I'm a soldier on the field
Waiting to die, praying to live
To survive one more day
But my hope begins to fray
It's my flesh against the steel
You'll never know what I've known
You'll never see what I've seen
I hope we make it home
When they coming home?
When they leaving that place?
See their lover's face again
Kid will see his daddy's face again
When they coming home?
Lord, shed some grace
Put your peace in the valley tonight
Bring the soldier home alright
When they coming home?
When they leaving that place?
See their lover's face again
Kid will see his daddy's face again
So far from home, she cries
Politics aside, what I'd give to have him here tonight
When they coming home?
When they leaving that place?
See their lover's face again
Kid will see his daddy's face again
When they coming home?
Lord, shed some grace
Put your peace in the valley tonight
Bring the soldier home alright
When they coming home?
Children playing in the sun, home
See their lover's face again
Kid will see his daddy's face again
When they coming home?
Mama braiding your sweet hair, home
Put your peace in the valley tonight
Bring the soldier home alright
When they coming home?
Children playing in the sun, home
See their lover's face again
Kid will see his daddy's face again
When they coming home?
Mama braiding your sweet hair, home
When they coming home?
