"Where have all the young men gone?
They're leaving town, one by one
Johnny, come and get your gun
Father give your only son
Fearlessly they lay down they're lives
Son, don't be afraid to die
You're fighting for the land that you love
Fighting for your God up above
When the bullets fall around you like rain
And the starry night has burst into flames
Remember you're the few, you're the brave
Remember what your fighting to save
I know you'll be coming home soon
The war is over, it was on the evening news
Nobody's winning when it's life we have to lose
I know you'll be coming home soon, coming home soon
Victory can be bittersweet
Insurrection in the street
It never comes without a price
And never without sacrifice
Suicidal bombs in their cars
Wrap them up in stripes and stars
Johnny boy is coming home
For a soldier's burial
I know you'll be coming home soon
The war is over, it was on the evening news
Nobody's winning when it's life we have to lose
I know you'll be coming home soon, coming home soon
