War Song

I know you say it's okay
I know you say you're coming back someday
You want to help the people
I really don't want to see you go

Renny and Momma say you're so brave
But me and Dus don't really feel the same
Doesn't anybody care what we say
I know America's not safe

But I don't want to see my daddy go to war
I don't want to see my daddy go to war
I don't want to see my daddy go to war, go to war
I don't want to see my daddy go to war

I've heard about the war on TV
(Uh oh)
Don't really know what those big words mean
(Ooh no no)
I know a lot of people seem to think
That you're doing the right thing (Oh oh)
Me and Dus don't care what they think

We understand you want to change something
(Oh oh)
It is the ferret of the war that I can't see
(No, no, no)
But they can take my daddy from me

Oh, Oh
Oh, Oh
Oh, there must be another way
(Another way)
Somehow, someway
You've got to stay
(Please stay)

Cause on that great big wall
I don't want to see your name
(Oh, no, no, no, no)
If they ask me, then I'll say
(Don't take him)
Ooh
