Love And War Lyrics

by Brad Paisley


[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

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e115204-brad_paisley~love_and_war_lyrics.html ]
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
