Another Man's Cause

Gunshots shatter the peace of night

it's just another fire fight

for the people of this little town

but for the dying soldier

he's feeling ten yerars older

and he's lying face down on the ground

all the words that are in his head

are all the words his mother said

as she would put him to bed back homeCHORUS:

your daddy died in the falklands

fighting for another man's cause

and your brother he was killed in the last war

now your mother's lying at home aloneEvery day she sees his face

on the picture on the fireplace

with your brother as he was leaving school

then a day came five years ago

you said "mother, i need to know"

and you spoke the words your brother spoke before

"i know the things my daddy done

i've seen the medals thet he won

and i know that this is what he would have wanted-for me"CHORUSAND NOW SHE WONDERS AT IT ALL

HOW MANY MORE ARE GOING TO ANSWER THE CALL

TO FIGHT AND DIE IN ANOTHER COUNTRY'S

TO DIE FOR RELIGION THE NEVER BELIVED IN AT ALL

TO DIE IN A PLACE THEY SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN AT ALL

NO, NEVER BEEN AT ALLCHORUS
