Bring The Boys Home

Fathers are pleading, lovers are all alone
 mothers are praying--send our sons back home
 you marched them away--yes, you did--on ships and planes
 to the senseless war, facing death in vain
 Bring the boys home (bring 'em back alive)
 bring the boys home (bring 'em back alive)
 bring the boys home (bring 'em back alive)
 bring the boys home (bring 'em back alive)
 turn the ships around, lay your weapons down
 Can't you see 'em march across the sky, all the soldiers that have died
 tryin' to get home--can't you see them tryin' to get home?
 tryin' to get home--they're tryin' to get home
 seesaw fire on the battlefield
 enough men have already been wounded or killed
 Bring the boys home (bring 'em back alive)
 bring the boys home (bring 'em back alive)
 bring the boys home (bring 'em back alive)
 bring the boys home (bring 'em back alive)
 turn the ships around, lay your weapons down
 (mothers, fathers and lovers, can't you see them)
 Oooh, oooh...
 tryin' to get home--can't you see them tryin' to get home?
 oooh, oooh...
 tryin' to get home--they're tryin' to get home
 Bring the boys home (bring 'em back alive)
 bring the boys home (bring 'em back alive)
 bring the boys home (bring 'em back alive)
 bring the boys home (bring 'em back alive)
 what they doing over there, now (bring 'em back alive)
 when we need them over here, now (bring 'em back alive)
 what they doing over there, now (bring 'em back alive)
 when we need them over here, now (bring 'em back alive)
