Tell me when to eat
Tell me when to breathe
Tell me what to think, and what to believe
Tell me when to cry
Who to trust and why
And send me off to die
I'll sacrifice my life
'Cause I'm ready
And I'm waiting
To give, my life for my country
I'm so sorry
Mama don't worry
Let's hope, I'm fighting for God's army
Hold me as I pray
This is my last day
Before I go to sleep
Freedom from decay
God I'd like to say
Thank you for the eight
Years we'll spend in pain
I'll probably die in vain
'Cause I'm ready
And I'm waiting
To give, my life for my country
I'm so sorry
Mama don't worry
Let's hope, I'm fighting for God's army
I really don't know why we're fighting
I know there's got to be a reason
Our government would never send us
Without a cause
So I'm ready
And I'm waiting
To give, my life for my country
I'm so sorry
Mama don't worry
Let's hope, I'm fighting for God's army
