Lyrics
A soldier per gallon
Is that what it costs for the price of our children?
I hope this stops
There?s a simple cure for such a deadly disease
That which I?m sure the remedy?s peace
Brothers, please brothers
Lay down your guns
We?re burning our futures
Look what we?re teaching our sons
Please brothers, please
Lay down your guns
Two soldiers per gallon
The price has shot up
Sooner or later this wartex must stop
It?s sucking us dry
Filling our minds with hopeless dreams and all the lost lives
Brothers, please brothers
Lay down your guns
We?re burning our futures
Look what we?re teaching our sons
Please brothers, please
Lay down your guns
Lay?em down
Lay?em down
Three soldiers per gallon
When will this stop?
For all of our futures I hope sooner than?
I hope sooner than not
