- Knock 'Em Down Lyrics / with translationsWell, I don't know where I am but I know my destination (3x)
Knock 'em down, Christian soldiers, knock 'em down
Well the devil likes his liquor and he smokes a big cigar (3x)
But he's always been a real good friend of mine
If there's a hell way down below, I bet you see someone you know (3x)
And we'll all have a f*cking good time
So knock 'em down, knock 'em down, another dead soldier hits the ground
Because our time on earth is brief, we don't want no strife or grief
So knock 'em down, knock 'em down, knock 'em down
If there's a heaven in the air, don't expect to see me there (3x)
Knock 'em down, lords and ladies, knock 'em down
Well I don't believe in god cause he don't believe in me (3x)
And he never returns any of my calls (Repeat Chorus)
I don't believe in god cause he don't believe in me (3x)
And he never returns any of my calls
Well the earth just keep on spinning 'round as history repeats (3x)
Knock 'em down, cocks and chickens, knock 'em down
And I hope you all remember me when I'm in my grave (3x)
Fill your glass, get off your ass, and knock 'em down
Knock 'em down, knock 'em down, knock 'em down
Knock 'em down, Christian soldiers, knock 'em down
Well the devil likes his liquor and he smokes a big cigar (3x)
But he's always been a real good friend of mine
If there's a hell way down below, I bet you see someone you know (3x)
And we'll all have a f*cking good time
So knock 'em down, knock 'em down, another dead soldier hits the ground
Because our time on earth is brief, we don't want no strife or grief
So knock 'em down, knock 'em down, knock 'em down
If there's a heaven in the air, don't expect to see me there (3x)
Well I don't believe in god cause he don't believe in me (3x)
And he never returns any of my calls (Repeat Chorus)
I don't believe in god cause he don't believe in me (3x)
And he never returns any of my calls
Well the earth just keep on spinning 'round as history repeats (3x)
Knock 'em down, cocks and chickens, knock 'em down
And I hope you all remember me when I'm in my grave (3x)
Fill your glass, get off your ass, and knock 'em down
Knock 'em down, knock 'em down, knock 'em down
