Verse 1 When the war was over In 1954 The government said sorry We've lost so many lives Verse 2 He raised a little family In a small country town He tried to make a living Just like any man Verse 3 He woke up sunday morning When the rain was falling down The old man said i'm sorry Your war has just begun Chorus His wife has gone and left him And now he's on his own She's taken away his children Not knowing where they've gone That was back in 1954 His wife has tried to help him And now that she's gone She's taken away his children Not knowing where they've gone That was back in 1954 Lead Break Verse 4 He woke up Sunday morning With the bottle in his hand An old man said "i'm sorry" "Your war has just begun" Chorus His wife has gone and left him And now he's on his own She's taken away his children Not knowing where they've gone That was back in 1954 His wife has tried to help him And now that she's gone She's taken away his children Not knowing where they've gone That was back in 1954 That was back in 1954
