Stop the fighting

What you smilin at boy
Don’t you know
We’re livin in hard times
Gotta watch your back boy
Don’t you know
Time is not on your side

Oh my friend
Oh the lords been easy on you
By the way that you sing
Way you holdin your drink
Ain’t a lot that you’ve been through
I can tell
Oh my friend
Oh the sergeants looking for you
He’ll put a gun in your hand
And he’ll tell you go scram
Find another young man to shoot

Stop the fighting, just stop and see
Skies of violence and crimson seas
Fight for country and family
So they told us, so it seemed
Stop the fighting, and let me breathe
Find my brothers, my company
Fight for country and family
So they told us, so it seemed

Why you callin out boy
Don’t you know
You don’t wanna be found
Why you looking south boy
Don’t you know
We ain’t goin back around

Oh my friend
Oh the lords been easy on you
By the way that you sing
Way you holdin your drink
Ain’t a lot that you’ve been through
I can tell
Oh my friend
Oh the sergeants looking for you
He’ll put a gun in your hand
And he’ll tell you go scram
Find another young man to shoot

Stop the fighting, just stop and see
Skies of violence and crimson seas
Fight for country and family
So they told us, so it seemed
Stop the fighting, and let me breathe
Find my brothers, my company
Fight for country and family
So they told us, so it seemed

Stop the fighting, just stop and see
Skies of violence and crimson seas
Fight for country and family
So they told us, so it seemed
Stop the fighting, and let me breathe
Find my brothers, my company
Fight for country and family
So they told us, so it seemed
