Back To the World Lyrics

Back in the world
Back in the world
Back in the world
Back in the worldCrawlin' through the trees
Stuck in mud up to the knees
Fightin' this damn war
Wonderin' if the Lord knows what it's forSix long years stretch
And we boys was in a hell of a mess
I gotta keep my mind; take it slow
Fightin' hard for what I don't knowI wanna get back home, gotta get back home
Back to the world
I had a talk with little mom
Strenuous face as she began to hum
She said: Boy, it's good to see ya
My prayers must've been with ya
And now that you're back and done
Let me tell ya son
The war was never won

The war was never wonIn these city streets everywhere
You gotta be careful where you move your feet; how you part your hair
Do you think that God could never forgive this life we live?
Back in the world
Back in the worldOh-oh-oh-oh-oh
My, my, my, my
It's so hard, it's so hard, it's so hard
This life is so hard
I've been beaten up and robbed
Soldier boy ain't got no job
Back in the worldHad a long stretch of sacrifice
Gettin' back home will be awful nice
Child your woman has long been gone
The doggone war just lasted too long
People don't give a damn
People don't give a damn
People don't give a damnSo I'm standin' here in future shock
It can give the mind an awful knock
Talkin' 'bout hard times, hard times, hard times
Back in the worldOh-oh-oh
My, my, my, my, my, my
It's so hard, it's so hard
This life is so hardI been beaten up and robbed
Soldier boy ain't got no job
Back in the worldBack in the world
Uh huh, back in the world
Back in the world
Uh huh, uh huhOh-oh-oh-oh-oh
My, my, my, my
It's so hard, it's so hard, it's so hard
This life is so hard
Back in the worldOoh ooh ooh hoo
Ooh ooh ooh hooBack in the world
Back in the worldForgiveness instead of amnesty
Simple words that seem so clear to me
Forgive our country
Forgive your man, wastin' love for hate
Truth from honesty is true
We'd don't seem to know what to do, do
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Back in the world
