Letra da Música Lonely Soldier de Gregory Isaacs

I'm a lonely soldier, many miles from home
With a heart that's heavy, and with a will that's strong
Behind, I left a woman, so, so dear to me
Now I'm off to fight a war that they say would make me free

I'm a lonely soldier, I'm a lonely soldier
I'm a lonely, lonely, lonely, lonely soldier (yes, I am)
So won't somebody have mercy on me

Nice little son call junior, smiling but with sympathy
All confused he asked a question, he said, "daddy
why must this war be? "

I tried so very hard, yes I did
so very hard I tried to explain. yeah!
But it seems that all I ever been trying, lord
it all seems to be in vain
You know lord, I'm tired of hearing people crying
Lord, I'm tired of seeing people dying
But I promise I wait very patiently
For that sweet voice of liberty
An non. yeah!

I'm tired of seeing people dying
