Battle Cry

Hoo, I'd like to re-write
History books for all time
The future, the past
Search for the rhyme

The search goes on
For truth in everyone
Numbers on the wall
Counting sad young faces, count them all

Hoo, the thrill of the fight
Killing's such a noble deed
And John said, "Love is all we need"

Should we forget
Or pause a moment to regret
Where have we been?
I see things I wish I'd never seen

Battle cry
Brave men never fear
Battle cry
Never shed a tear
Battle cry
All good soldiers hear the battle cry

So many, many miles from home
Oh Lord, have mercy on my soul
I think the loneliest man in the world is a soldier

Yes I know, try to believe
Political renaissance we need
It's the will of God that we must heed

The image fades
To blacks and blues and subtle grey
It's modern song
The cry goes on and on

Battle cry
Brave men never fear
Battle cry
Never shed a tear
Battle cry
All good soldiers hear the battle cry

Ho, ho, ho
Yes, I know
Cry
Good soldiers
Never shed a tear
Hear the battle cry
Cry, ho cry yeah
