Soldier - Iskwe

The changing time

Can get you down

When you try to call her

Will she be around

The land is flat

It’s not like home

The stereo crackles

When it gets 4 below

Soldier

Soldier

You’ve been there so long

You gotta be strong

Soldier

You’ve been there so long

You gotta be strong

Soldier

The rocking horse

The gleaming sand

The thirsty bird

Who only drinks the colour black

The harvest here

We fight the land

Will you see her again

With that money in your hand

Soldier

Soldier

You’ve been there so long

You gotta be strong

Soldier

You’ve been there so long

You gotta be strong

Soldier

On better things

Your heart is hung

On better things

Your heart is hung

On better things

Soldier

You’ve been there so long

You gotta be strong

Soldier

You’ve been there so long

You gotta be strong
