Song Lyrics

Fathers are pleading, lovers are all alone
Mothers are praying, send our sons back home
You marched them away, yes, you did, on ships and planes
To the senseless war, facing death in vain

[Chorus]
Bring the boys home (bring 'em back alive) [Repeat: x4]
Turn the ships around, lay your weapons down

Can't you see 'em march across the sky, all the soldiers that have died
Trying to get home, can't you see them trying to get home?
Trying to get home, they're trying to get home
Seesaw fire on the battlefield
Enough men have already been wounded or killed

[Chorus]

(Mothers, fathers and lovers, can't you see them)

Oh, oh
Trying to get home, can't you see them trying to get home?
oh, oh,
Trying to get home, they're tryin' to get home

Bring the boys home (bring 'em back alive) [Repeat: x4]
What they doing over there, now (bring 'em back alive)
When we need them over here, now (bring 'em back alive)
What they doing over there, now (bring 'em back alive)
When we need them over here, now (bring 'em back alive)
