Battle Of Them Vs Them, The - Dogwood

I’ll sing you a song of a time such as these

Though many a year as now passed

The lesson’s the same but the sentiments changed

The impression it made still does last for all

Serving his country

Enlist!

Do it now

He took up his arms

He would show

Such bravery as he took many a life

Of the people he would never know

Sing of me

Of all the men I killed

I know that this will build me up

Think of me

I know that I’ll be brave

They all fell down that day

Well after the war, people picked up their life

The damage was already done

While fatherless children slept under the door

And woke innocent to the sun

Please why me?

I know they’d take it back

Why can’t they take it back?

Comfort me

A child grows too fast

And now let him ask

A small little child sits and waits for his dad

Hands clutching a brown telegram

Informs him his father won’t be coming home

He gave up his life for his land

(Whoah-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

Sing of me

And all the men I’ve killed

I know that this will build me up

And think of me

I know that was brave

We all fell down that day

We all fell down that day

We all fell down that day

We all fell down that day

We all fell down that day
