Jerry Goldsmith - A Girl Worth Fighting For lyrics

For a long time we've been marching off to battle In a thundering herd, we feel a lot like cattle Like the pounding beet, our aching feet aren't easy to ignore Hey, think of instead a girl worth fighting for That's what I said, a girl worth fighting for I want her paler than the moon with eyes that shine like stars My girl will marvel at my strength, adore my battle scars I couldn't care what she'll wear or looks like It all depends on what she cooks like, beef, pork, chicken Bet the local girls think you are quite the charmer And I bet the ladies love a man in armor You can guess what we have missed the most since we went off to war What do we want, a girl worth fighting for My girl will think I have no faults that I'm a major find Uh, how 'bout a girl who's got a brain who always thinks her mind? Nah My manly ways and turn of phrase are sure to thrill her He thinks he's such a lady k**er Have a girl back home who's unlike any other Yeah, the only girl who'd love him is his mother But when we come home in victory they'll line up the door What do we want? A girl worth fighting for Wish that I had, a girl worth fighting for A girl worth fighting
