about

Anti-war song I wrote (mostly) when I was 21. This is a demo which I do not feature on but my eldest daughter does!

lyrics

You see this man, he was well known
As a man who gave his heart and soul
To the land we live in, to the country, boy
You see this man? He was well known.
Insert with MT
Time to put away the gun for good
And you see this man? He was well known.
He led his countrymen to deeds untold.
For the life around us, for the air we breathe
You see this man, what's that you say son?
Insert with MT
Time to put a halt to all this war
It's hard to tell you, it's long ago
They stopped the fighting, it had to go
Because man was dying, you don't understand?
What's that he's holding? Well that's a gun!
