DEATH COME EASY

Death come easy, if you come before your time
Death come easy to a young man in his prime
They put a gun in my hand
Said, Fight for the freedom of your land
Death come easy to a young man in his prime

Life was easy, I could want for nothing more
life was easy, then there came a call for war
I left my family, left my home
With the army I was forced to roam
Life was easy, then there came a call for war

Love was easy, with my lady I would stay
Love was easy, then the war took me away
Forget your love, war is right
so they taught me how to kill and fight
Love was easy, then the war took me away

Killing's easy, with a weapon in your hand
Killing's easy and they say that war is grand
With their music and their drums
They can't see the slaughter of their guns
Killing's easy and they say that war is grand

repeat first verse
