Got a song about a soldier,Ridin' somewhere on a trainEmpty sleeve pinned to his shoulderAnd some pills to ease the painStarted drinkin' in El Paso,He was drunk in San Antone,Tellin' strangers who were sleepin'How he hated goin' homeJust a simple song of freedom,He was never fightin' for,No one's listenin' when you need 'em,Ain't no fun to sing that song no more.Got a song about a sister,Waitin' somewhere by the phone,For some man who never missed her,Ever since he come and goneAnd its harder for a woman,With a baby on the way,That's the price of bein' human,When you're poor enough to pay,So she listens to the freedom,In the silence at her doorNo one's missin' till you need 'emAin't no fun to sing that song no moreGot a song about a Savior,Lookin' lonesome and afraid,At a city full of strangers,And a cross He never madeAnd He's sadder than He's wiser,And a longer way from home,And He wonders why His Father,Left Him bleeding and alone.Just a broken song of freedom,And the closing of a door,No one's missin' till you need 'emAin't no fun to sing that song no more.
