Oh my name it is nothin'

My age it means less
岁月于我不过虚妄
The country I come from

I's taught and brought up there

The laws to abide

And that land that I live in

Has God on it's side

Oh the history books tell it

They tell it so well

The cavalries charged
骑兵们冲锋陷阵
The Indians fell

The cavalries charged

The Indians died

With God on it's side

Oh the Spanish American

War had it's day

And the civil war too

Was soon laid away

And the names of the heroes

I's made to memorize

With guns in their hands

And God on their side

I never did get

But now we got weapons

Of the chemical dust

If fire them we're forced to

Then fire them we must

One push of the button

So now as I'm leavin'

The confusion I'm feelin'

Ain't no tongue can tell

The words fill my head
思绪翻涌不息
And fall to the floor

If God's on our side

He'll stop the next war
