your daddy's gone away now dear
but he'll be back home soon
your daddy's gone away for now
to fight for our way of life

your daddy writes and says he's well
and he can't wait to see you soon
your daddy writes us letters
between fighting for our dreams

your daddy says he's standing up
and making our world safer
your daddy knows he's walking tall
fighting so we can live in peace

your daddy won't be coming home
he gave his life for freedom - something?
your daddy won't be home soon now
just a bloody flag and medal for fighting
