Paradise |
They gave me a green uniform and black boots for my feel |
Eighteen and wild as hell, I thought it would be neat |
They put me on a plane to some strange and foreign land |
I said my good-bye to mom and dad and hello to Uncle Sam |
Once I was a soldier and not afraid to die |
Now I’m a little older and not afraid to cry |
Everyday I’m thankful just to be alive |
When you’ve been where I’ve been any kind of life |
Is paradise |
Christmas of eighty-nine was a lonely time for me |
Panama was probably fine but it was nothing like Tennessee |
I never thought the day would come when I might have to kill a man |
I did not sleep a wink that night but we won for Uncle Sam |
Once I was a soldier and not afraid to die |
Now I’m a little older and not afraid to cry |
Everyday I’m thankful just to be alive |
When you’ve been where I’ve been any kind of life |
Is paradise |
If you’ve been where I’ve been any kind of life |
Is paradise |
It’s paradise |
