Lyrics
Red, white and blue Men are fighting in the wilderness Red, white and blue Don't help the women in their loneliness Red, white and blue Oh, can you tell when the children cry Does it help to know their dad is dyin' For the red, white and blue? Young boys with their fantasies Of war and reward Women with their warnings Whose cries will be unheard And they say, "We are men, we are strong We will fight together" Oh, but don't they know the picture show Don't have a happy end? Red, white and blue Blood is flowing on the battlefield Red, white and blue Light is dying with their broken dreams Red, white and blue Sky is overcast as war clouds gather Darkness drains away the colours Of red, white and blue Young boys with their fantasies Of glory and reward They did not heed the women Whose cries have been ignored As they say, "We are men, we are strong And we will fight together" Oh, but don't they know the picture show Don't have a happy end? Red, white and blue Makes no difference in the crazy game Red, white and blue You're just a number, and you've got no name Red, white and blue The battle's won, your country's flag is flying While they cover up your body With the red, white and blue Red, white and blue Red, white and blue
