I took a flag to a pawnshop For a broken guitar I took a flag to a pawnshop How much is that guitar I took a flag to a pawnshop
I got me that guitar What´s a flag in a pawnshop to me?
I saw a man on the TV In a mask with a gun A man on the TV He had a ten-year old son I saw a man on the TV His son had a gun He says that he´s coming for me
I never loved the soldier until there was a war Or thought about tomorrow ´Til my baby hit the floor I only talk to God when somebody´s about to die I never cherished Freedom
Freedom never cries
I wrote a song for a dead man To settle my soul A song for a dead man Now I´ll never grow old I wrote a song for a dead man Now I´m out in the cold What´s a song to a dead man to me?
I never loved the soldier until there was a war Or thought about tomorrow ´Til my baby hit the floor I only talk to God when somebody´s about to die I never cherished Freedom
Freedom never cries
You can cry for her
Die for her Lay down your life for her Kiss and wave good-bye to her Anything at all
You can cry for her Die for her Make up your mind to her Anything at all
There´s a baby on the doorstep Wailing away There´s a baby on the doorstep Longing for the day There´s a baby on the doorstep Who´d give his life to take A flag to a pawnshop A flag to a pawnshop
