1
Well an old man said to me
2
In a voice filled with pain
3
Where you going young man
4
Said I'm going to fight a war
5
Gonna fight for my country
6
In some foreign land
7
He said "The sun will never hurt you
8
Never harmed anyone
9
But you must realize
10
If you try to stare her down
11
She will win in the end
12
She will burn your eyes
13
She will burn them
14
Seen a million places
15
Seen a million faces die
16
And I wonder who will walk with me
17
When I get to Heaven
18
He said "Boy I was young once
19
Yeah I was tough
20
Sailing on Uncle Sam's boat
21
Hey I could kill the enemy
22
I could die on foreign streets
23
But I could not vote
24
But now you walk by me
25
You won't talk to me
26
Say this is my fate
27
But every time you walk the streets boy
28
Most of them you meet
29
You see it's you they hate
30
It's you...
31
Seen a million faces
32
Seen a million places die
33
And I wonder who will walk with me
34
When I get to Heaven
35
I hope I get there
36
Seen a million places
37
Seen a million faces die
38
And I wonder who will walk with me
39
When I get there
40
See this woman sitting next to me
41
She's been there for a long, long time
42
And when I fell, she picked me up
43
When I cried, she wiped my tears
44
I thank god she's mine
45
And when I leave this world
46
She won't have anything
47
But her love for me
48
'Cause the man took everything else
49
Made me hate myself
50
So just let her be boy
51
Won't you let her be
