Sean Rowe Soldier's Song Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I met my enemy today
Baby takes the little one out to play
Enemy shot two of my buddies down
Baby rides the little one on the merry-go-round

[Verse 2]
By my post, I'm standing guard
Baby hopes for roses in the front yard
I don't know my enemy's name
Baby takes the little one to a baseball game

[Verse 3]
I am in this God forsaken place
While baby wipes the dirt from the little one's face
Ten years old in the killing fields
Baby's planning the weekly meals

[Verse 4]
Bodies in a body ditch
Baby's got supper to fix
My brother's got a hole in his head
Baby gets the little one ready for bed

[Verse 5] Today I shot my enemy
Baby gives the little one a hug for me
Both my buddy's legs got blown off
Baby tends to the little one's cough

[Verse 6]
I stare down at the barrel of a gun
Baby's going out to have some fun
And I hear ringing in my ear
Baby's face is all wet with tears

[Verse 7]
I can't look my enemy in the eye
Baby tells the little one daddy's gone bye-bye
Today I took a bullet in the heart
Now Baby's gonna have to make a brand new start

[Verse 8]
I met my enemy today
Baby sends the little one out to play
Enemy shot and took my body down
Baby rides the little one on the merry-go-round
