Now That The War Is Over - Willie Nile
Written by:Willie Nile/Robert A. Noonan
Now that the war is over it's back to work on the farm
Now that the war is over the senators spread their charm
The army's guns are quiet now the planes don't do no harm
Now that the war is over it's back to work on the farm
Now that the war is over don't laugh so hard
Now that the war is over he's constantly on guard
He saw a village burning up a little baby charred
Now that the war is over don't laugh so hard
Now that the war is over don't have no man
Now that the war is over he's buried in pakistan
He went to war at twenty-four to fight for uncle
Now that the war is over don't have no man
Now that the war is over don't have no leg
Now that the war is over he sits on a stoop to beg
He don't play football anymore he drinks beer by the keg
Now that the war is over don't have no leg
Now that the war is over just stays in bed
Now that the war is over he wishes he was dead
He got blown up on highway one got holes in the back of his head
Now that the war is over just stays in bed
Now that the war is over don't have no dad
Now that the war is over he misses him real bad
It's time to fight his father said and gave it all he had
Now that the war is over don't have no dad
Now that the war is over momma don't have no son
Now that the war is over she's not the only one
Now that the war is over now that the deed is done
Now that the war is over momma don't have no son
