I have people to free, they're depending on me |
|
So I can't afford to die |
|
Get them safely back, then I won't stay too long |
|
I'll be leaving soon for London |
|
So I'll look this war straight in the eye |
|
Only thirty days so I can't afford to die. |
|
When I think of the dead, that go round in my head |
|
No I can't afford to die |
|
So the thing to do is pretend that they weren't there |
|
With my baby at home waiting |
|
I can give myself a little sigh |
|
Only thirty days so I can't afford to die. |
|
God ain't taking my hand, not to no promised land |
|
So I can't afford to die |
|
So I'll cease my command before another bomb |
|
If I see my home a free man |
|
I'll remember why I never cried |
|
Only thirty days so I can't afford to die |
