Into the battle, there's a war to be won,
always remember you're the one with the gun,
when everyone's winning and there's no need to fake,
when the conflict is over, have you something to take?
Hey, have you ever thought
of your life as a rock'n roll soldier?
How can you take anymore,
with this weight pressing down on your shoulder?
Hey, Mr. Driver, won't you please stop the bus,
there's a guy in the back going crazy on us,
he's acting real strange and we think he should go,
the captain said "No, no, he's the star of the show."
Hey, have you ever thought
of your life as a rock'n roll soldier?
How can you take anymore,
with this weight pressing down on your shoulder?
Home is the hunter,
lock all your doors and come clean,
where is the strengh that you promised me?
I think it's time that you paid me my fee;
pay me my fee!
Solo
What have you got when it's over and done?
A pain in your back and a curse on your tongue,
you know in your heart when they add up the score,
they get the glory, but you won the war.
Hey, have you ever thought
of your life as a rock'n roll soldier?
How can you take anymore,
with this weight pressing down on your shoulder?
Hey, have you ever thought
of your life as a rock'n roll soldier?
How can you take anymore,
with this weight pressing down on your shoulder?
You're a rock'n roll soldier...
Take this weight ...
Take this weight off your shoulder...
You're a rock'n roll, rock'n roll soldier,
rock'n roll soldier,
you got the gun ...
rock'n roll, rock'n roll soldier...
