Piano tribute players - Ho Hey lyrics

He said "Son have you seen the world? Well, What would you say if i said that you could Just carry this gun, you'll even get paid!" I said "That sounds pretty good" Black leather boots, Spit shined so bright They cut of my hair, but it looks allright We marched and we sang, we all became friends As we learned how to fight A hero of war Yeah, that's what I'll be and when I come home They'll be damn proud of me I'll carry this flag to the grave if I must 'cause it's a flag that I love And a flag that I trust I kicked in the door I yelled my commands The children, they cried But I got my man We took him away A bag over his face From his family and friends They took off his clothes They pissed in his hands I told them to stop But then I joined in We beat him with guns and batons Not just once but again and again A hero of war Yeah, That's what I'll be And when I come home they'll be damn proud of me I'll carry this flag to the grave if I must 'Cause it's a flag that I love And a flag that I trust She walked through bullets and haze I asked her to stop I begged her to stay But she pressed on so I lifted my gun And I fired away And the shells jumped through the smoke And into the sand that the blood now had soaked She collapse with a flag in her hand A flag white as snow A hero of war Is that's what they see(?) Just metal and scars So damn proud of me (!) And I brought home that flag Now it gathers dust But it's a flag I love It's the only thing i Trust He said "Son have you seen the world? But what would you say if I said that you could?"
