Weary Soldier

Yaou, yaou, yaou, yaou, yaou, yeah, oh, yaou, yeah, yaou!

Say Mother Nature sent me this song
Said to sing it as hard as you can, yeah
Over hills and down in the valleys
Through the streets and through the back-alleys

Weary soldier, it's time to lay it down, oh
War is over, full time we had some fun, yeah
Set the borders free, so everyone can roam, boy
Give me one good reason why we fail to get along

Hey! Say Mother Nature said ask them this question
What the hell are you doing to get mad?
I see you chopping down, I see you bombing
Remember I'll be here when everyone's gone

Weary soldier, it's time to lay it down, oh
War is over, full time we had some fun, yeah
Set the borders free, so everyone can roam
Give me one good reason why we fail to get along

As smart as we are
Can we tell ourselves that we've really done our best?
As smart as we are
Can we convince ourselves that we've really passed the test?

Give me one reason why intelligent people
Just can't seem to let peace last
Just one reason is all I ask
Why we won't let the past just be the past

Nature's calling out, nature's calling yeah, nature's calling out

Now Mother Nature sent me this song
Said to sing it as hard as you can
Through the hills and down in the valleys
Through the streets and down the back-alleys

Weary soldier, it's time to lay it down
War is over, full time we had some fun
Set the borders free, so everyone can roam
Gimme one good reason why we fail to get along

Weary soldier, it's time to lay it down, oh
War is over, full time we had some fun, yeah
Set the borders free, so everyone can roam
I need one reason why this war must carry on

Weary soldier, it's time to lay it down
War is over
