American Boy Soldier (Live At Hyde Park 18th July 1970) - Edgar Broughton Band

They're sending me home, shot through to the bone

He had a red cross on his arm, all I got was napalm

The American Army, the American Army,

Wait till the Russians get hold of you!

Not forgetting the Navy, not forgetting the Navy

And the Air force too!

Shot down from my plane, they leave me out cold

Never be the same again, I was just sixteen years old!

The American Army, the American Army,

Wait till the Russians get hold of you!

Not forgetting the Navy, Not forgetting the Navy

And the Air force too!

It'll be so nice to get back home to North Carolina

See my blonde, all-American honey bun

With her transistor radio turned up full!

Do all the things we used to do, back in the old days!

What a thrill it could be Hope you enjoy the air raid!!
