Artist/Band: Nazareth
Lyrics for Song: A Veteran's Song
Lyrics for Album: Cinema [1986]



The bars are crowded with wasted youth

You just went, you didn't know the truth

You don't know that kid when you look back

You remember the music, paint it black



You had a brother in the movement and he burned his card

He's got a job in the white house, ain't life hard

You came back a hero on a stolen horse

You say you don't fit in, you can't stay the course



I may be right, don't care if I'm wrong

It's a veteran's song

I may be right, don't care if I'm wrong

It's a veteran's song



The band paraded playing "Oh gung ho"

Your country needs you, you've got to go

When you came over they said "Soldier go back"

When you came home they put you on the rack



Between agent orange and the jungle and fear

You're just surviving to get out of here

You smoke some more herb and you keep your head down

Could be your number is on the next round
