|
And have you seen my children? |
|
God bless them, kiss them |
|
And tell them that |
|
I miss them |
|
See I'm frightened in the dark |
|
Mama, mama |

The blood is ankle-deep |
|
They have trained your boy to kill |
|
And kill someday he will |
|
They have trained your boy to die |
|
Mama take a look at your boy |
|
Take a look at him now |

Take a look at your boy |
|
He's marching |
|
He's a soldier |
|
Oh brother, oh mama |
|
He's on the street |
|
He's marching to the backbeat |
