The Fortunate Sons Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Blood, thunder and fear flowing
I cry when I need you
And march when I'm told where to go
Lessons I know
Is it the way of a soldier to offer his soul?

[Chorus]
(Bang the drum slowly)
For the fortunate sons
Said and done
I am one
A fortunate son

[Verse 2]
Mud, ankles and bones covered
I pray when I need to
And sleep when I don't want to know
Letters from home
Clutched in the hands of my comrades
My brothers, my own

[Chorus 2] (Bang the drum slowly)
For the fortunate sons
(I feel the heat from my side)
I am one
(Crucified, deep and wide)
All said and done
(I could be saving a life--couldn't I?)
A fortunate son
[Bridge]
I, I
I, I

[Chorus 2]
(Bang the drum slowly)
For the fortunate sons
(I feel the heat from my side)
I am one
(Crucified, deep and wide)
All said and done
(I could be saving a life--couldn't I?)
A fortunate son

[Outro]
I, I
I, I
