Lyrics Chitty Chitty Bang Bang - The Teddybears

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

There are a lot of perfect reasons
To never fight another war
There are a lot of perfect questions
As to what’s worth fighting for
There are a lot of perfect fools
Who refuse to read the writing on the wall
But the truth is there are people
Who have made it crystal clear
That it is their holy mission
To destroy all we hold dear
And they are busily out searching
For the fire to make this towering nation fall
Now we can just sit back and wait
Until they spill more precious blood
Or we can seek these cowards out
And nip their slaughter in the bud
Adios, sweet home and family
I’m off to fight a war that must be won
You’ll know why I’m going
When you see the snow white rows of Arlington
Every blade of grass is sacred
Every headstone is a shrine
To somebody who was willing
To put existence on the line
The liberty we take for granted
It was purchased with their patriotic lives
Are their sleeping spirits restless?
Do they listen for the sound
Of the mustering of armies
To defend their hallowed ground?
Will we rise to the occasion
And ensure that their life’s legacy survives?
Though the willows blow soft breezes
They are whispering my name
Asking did they die for nothing
Aren’t I the keeper of the flame?
Adios, sweet home and family
Wave goodbye to your Louisiana son
You will know why I’m leaving
When you see the snow white rows of Arlington
Audios, sweet home and family
Wave goodbye to your Louisiana son
And if it be my fate you’ll find me
Proudly sleeping in the snow white rows
When you see the snow white rows of Arlington
