Joe Brooks Six String Soldier song lyrics

This is the story of a six string soldier

Down in the trenches six years bolder

Sleeve bloody from the heart he's worn there

But the valley gives the mountain such a sweeter taste in my mouth

Is so much louder than my thoughts and

I won't take my foot from the door stand

Up with your weapons of war

'Cause the man is going down

Oh, oh, you and me can go

So, oh, famously you know

Like Lennon and Ono

Except without the loco, oh

La, la, who cares what you are?

Ah, ah, I'm no superstar

But with this weapon on my shoulder

I'll be your six string soldier

This is the glory of a boyhood pipe dream

To wear a crown and make the girls scream

Tongue hungry for some more of that sweet tea

But the days of taking it easy for the honey could come back with a sting

And I swear to go far

So watch out

'Cause the man is singing now

Oh, oh, you and me can go

So, oh, famously you know

Like Lennon and Ono

Except without the loco, oh

La, la, who cares what you are?

Ah, ah, I'm no superstar

But with this weapon on my shoulder

I'll be your six string soldier

Though my heart is breaking now

You know I'll be back in town

And this love it will restore

Much finer than before

This thing is huge

It's just the beginning of something new

It's the start of me and

Oh, oh, you and me can go

So, oh, famously you know

Like Lennon and Ono

Except without the loco, oh

La, la, who cares what you are?

Ah, ah, I'm no superstar

But with this weapon on my shoulder

I'll be your six string soldier
