Universal Soldier lyrics translation: DONOVAN Universal Soldier song texte and letras DONOVAN Universal Soldier tab, paroles and testo DONOVAN Universal Soldier Karaoke and Music Video - none yet
He`s five foot-two, and he`s six feet-four,
He fights with missiles and with spears.
He`s all of thirty-one, and he`s only seventeen,
Been a soldier for a thousand years.
He`a a Catholic, a Hindu, an Atheist, a Jain,
A Buddhist and a Baptist and a Jew.
And he knows he shouldn`t kill,
And he knows he always will,
Kill you for me my friend and me for you.
And he`s fighting for Canada,
He`s fighting for France,
He`s fighting for the USA,
And he`s fighting for the Russians,
And he`s fighting for Japan,
And he thinks we`ll put an end to war this way.
And he`s fighting for Democracy,
He`s fighting for the Reds,
He says it`s for the peace of all.
He`s the one who must decide,
Who`s to live and who`s to die,
And he never sees the writing on the wall.
But without him,
How would Hitler have condemned him at Dachau?
Without him Caesar would have stood alone,
He`s the one who gives his body
As a weapon of the war,
And without him all this killing can`t go on.
He`s the Universal Soldier and he really is to blame,
His orders come from far away no more,
They come from here and there and you and me,
And brothers can`t you see,
This is not the way we put the end to war.
