| Got to make a new world, ought to make the old one right.

| I can see him in the morning, i can see him in the stars at night.
|
| Take me out to the battlefield, let me hear the shells flying by.
|
| Let me hear the sound of the cannons, let me hear them scream and cry.
|

|
| Whoa, hear them scream for shelter, from the world they never found.
|
| Oooo, oooo, oooo, oooo-ooo. |
