Levellers - Another Man's Cause Lyrics

Send "Another Man's Cause" ringtone to your cell

Gunshots shatter in the peace of night

Just another fire fight

For the people of this little town

But for the dying soldier

Well he's feeling ten years older

As he's lying face down on the ground

All the words that are in his head

And all the words his mother said

As she would put him to bed back home

Your daddy well he died in the falklands

Fighting for another man's cause

And your brother he was killed in the last war

And your mother well she's lying home alone

Every day she sees your face

On the picture on the fireplace

With your brother as he was leaving school

Then a day came five years ago

You said "mother i need to know"

And you spoke the words your brother spoke before

"i seen the things my daddy's done

And i've seen the medals daddy's won

And i know that this is what he would have wanted for me"

But your daddy well he died in the falklands

Fighting for another man's cause

And your brother he was killed in the last war

And your mother well she's lying home alone

Now she wonders at it all

Just in whose name do these brave young heroes fall

And how many more are going to answer that call

They're going to fight and die in another country's war

They're going die for a religion they don't believe in at all

They're die in a place they should never have been at all

Oh never have been at all

'cause your daddy well he died in the falklands

Fighting for another man's cause

And your brother he was killed in the last war

And your mother well she's lying home alone

And your daddy well he died in the falklands

Fighting for another man's cause

And your brother he was killed in the last war

And your mother well she's lying home alone
