I Left My Home

Your daddy was home when you left, you're right!
Your sister was home when you left, you're right!
Your brother was home when you left, you're right!
Your dog was home when you left, you're right!
Your cat was home when you left, you're right!
The fish was home when you left, you're right!

Your mommy and daddy, your brother, your sister, the dog, the cat, the fish
Was home when you left, you're right!
And that's the reason you left, you're right!

I left my home, to join the army
I left my home, to join the army
The day I left, my momma cried
She thought that I would surely die

I left my wife, crying at the door
She knew that I would die at war
I left my son playing in the yard
Seeing daddy leave made him cry so hard

Oowie, oowie, oowie, oowie
Oowie, oowie, oowie, oowie
Left, march! We join the army

The true soldier fights not because he hates what is in front of him
But because he loves what is behind him
