The Good Lord And The Man

Well he was one of the millions

Who signed up to defend us

Long ago in 1941

When they sucker punched us in Pearl Harbor

He fought under Macarthur seventeen with an army Thompson gun

Well he stormed a lot of beaches slept in jungles with the leaches

He saw things young man should never see

And when they shot him in the shoulder

He got back up and he marched over

Left a lot of brothers dead in kawagalie

If it wasn't for the good lord and the man

There wouldn't be a breath of freedom in this land

And I see people on my T.V. taking shots at uncle Sam

I hope they always remember why they can

Cause we'd all be speakin' German livin' under the flag of Japan

If it wasn't for the good lord and the man

If it wasn't for the good lord and the man

Well I'm the grandson of a soldier and I'd fight the whole world over

If duty called and freedoms on the line

But thanks to the greatest generation and the ones still fighting for our nation

I've never had to kill for my way of life

If it wasn't for the good lord and the man

There wouldn't be a breath of freedom in this land

And I see people on my T.V. taking shots at uncle Sam

I hope they always remember why they can

Cause we'd all be speakin' German livin' under flag of Japan

If it wasn't for the good lord and the man

If it wasn't for the good lord and the man

There wouldn't be a breath of freedom in this land

And I see people on my T.V. taking shots at uncle Sam

I hope they always remember why they can

Cause we'd all be speakin' German livin' under flag of Japan

If it wasn't for the good lord and the man

If it wasn't for the good lord and the man
