A Tale of a reluctant soldier.

lyrics

I'd have wanted more from life,
If I'd have known the difference,
Always something needs fixing on the farm.
Soldiers on horses came riding from places afar.

I was always taken with,
The notion that I had a gift,
but now I'll never ply a trade.
Sent here to die for a country I don't care to save.

Born free, ain't what it used to be
And I'd like to believe, that it ever meant a thing.
Born free, It's all news to me.
And I'm starting to believe, that it never meant an thing.

Sleep beside the cannon ball,
wait for final nightfall
with none but God to hear me pray.
I've nothing but hatred and scorn left to take to my grave.
