Love And War

[Verse 1: Brad Paisley]
He was nineteen
When he landed at Bagram
Scared and all alone
He lost a leg and a girlfriend
Before he got home.

[Chorus: Brad Paisley]
And they say all is fair in Love and War
But that ain't true, it's wrong
They send you off to die for us
Forget about you when you're done.

[Verse 2: John Fogerty]
He was nineteen in '68
After all this time
That pumpkin boy is now a broken man
Waitin' in a VA line
They say all is fair in Love and
But that ain't true, it's wrong
They ship you out to die for us
Forget about you when you're done.

[Verse 3: Brad Paisley & John Fogerty]
And the nightmares
And he's running scared
Far from home
And he wakes up
From a nightmare
He's in another one
He's still not home.

[Verse 3:]
They call 'em decorated heroes
And pin some medals on their chest
Give 'em a tiny little pension
Could we do much less.

[Chorus: Brad Paisley & John Fogerty]
They say all is fair in Love and War
But that ain't true, it's wrong
They ship you out to die for us
Forget about you when you're gone
They say all is fair in Love and War
But that ain't true, it's wrong
They ship you out to die for us
Forget about you when you're gone
They say all is fair in Love and War
But that ain't true, it's wrong
They ship you out to die for us
But forget about you when you're gone.
