[Intro]
[Verse1]
Sixteen years old when i went to the war
To fight for a land fit for heroes
God on my side and a gun in my hand
Chasing my days down to zero
And i marched
And i fought
And bled and i died
And i never did get any older
But i knew at the time
That a year in the line
Was a long enough life for a soldier
[Verse2]
We all volunteered
And we wrote down our names
And we added two years to our ages
Eager for life
And ahead of the game
Ready for history’s pages
And we brawled and we fought
And we fought
And we whorled ’til we stood
Ten thousand shoulder to shoulder
A thirst for the hun, we were food for the gun
And that’s what you are when you’re soldiers
