Where The Rose Is Sown Lyrics

for the song "where the rose is sown" by big country:

          we're at war  all the papers say

          we will win  i read today

          we are strong  it wasn't us

           we are right       who started this?

          leave your work   i just left school

          leave your home     i am no fool

          take up arms    it left me strong

          sound alarms     the school bell rings

       sons of men who stand like gods

       we give life to feed the cause

       and run to ground our heathen foe

       our name will never die

       this time will be forever



    join up here        i wave goodbye

    we need you        oh my breast sighs

    have no fear        i must try

    god will be with   braver men

    take the vow        i know its right

    praise the flag     the good fight

    we're at war        i'm on my way

    we will win         why do i pray ?

    i wait here in this hole

    playing poker with my soul

    i hold the rifle close to me

    it lights the way to keep me free



    if i die in a combat zone

    box me up and ship me home

    if i die and still come home

    lay me where the rose is sown

    sons of men who stand like gods

    we give life to feed the cause

    and run to ground our heathen foe

    our name will never die

    this time will be forever

               -from the album "steeltown" by big country
