Lyrics
Soldier In Our Town
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
There's a soldier here today
But she don't bear steel in anywhere
She's like a bow
Seeking a wooden arrow
Pointing the way to love
We all know how we can hate
Just as strong as we could ever love
We can love, we can love
God bless you, God
For Sending me a woman
Pointing the way to love
We gotta love a woman
There's a statue in the square
But the things they hadn't
It ain't fair, it ain't fair, Lord
The things they hadn't
Cause beneath the stone
The greatest Man is all alone
Without a woman to love
Without a woman to shove
Without a woman to point the way to love
We gotta love a woman
