Love and War

[Brad Paisley:]

He was nineteen

When he landed at Bagram

Scared and all alone

He lost a leg and a girlfriend

Before he got home

And they say all is fair in Love and War

But that ain't true, it's wrong

They send you off to die for us

Forget about you when you don't

[John Fogerty:]

He was nineteen in '68

After all this time

That broken boy is now a broken man

Waitin' in a VA line

They say all is fair in Love and War

But that ain't true, it's wrong

They ship you out to die for us

Forget about you when you don't

[Brad Paisley & John Fogerty:]

And the nightmares

And he's running scared

Far from home

And he wakes up

From a nightmare

He's in another one

He's still not home

They call 'em decorated heroes

And pin some medals on their chest

Give 'em a tiny little pension

Could we do much less

[Brad Paisley:]

They say all is fair in Love and War

But that ain't true, it's wrong

[John Fogerty:]

They ship you out to die for us

Forget about you when you don't

[Brad Paisley:]

They say all is fair in Love and War

But that ain't true, it's wrong

[John Fogerty:]

They ship you out to die for us

[Brad Paisley:]

Forget about you when you don't

[John Fogerty:]

They say all is fair in Love and War

But that ain't true, it's wrong

They ship you out to die for us

But forget about you when you don't
