Greg Tannen - The Great War Lyrics

I went to the Great War in 2001
And so did you my son
You might not know it
The news won't show it
But you were sent to war in 2001
But the war's not won
Because this war's never done
The war's not won
Because this war's never done
There's one big sentence that we all have to serve
A lifetime sentence that we barely observe
We got scared on a Tuesday in Fall
And we strike back at anyone at all
And this war's not won
Because this war's never done
And this war's not won
Because this war's never done
Afghanistan, Libya
Pakistan, Syria
Yemen, Somalia, Iraq
Parent and child made to fight the same fight
And we don't know when they're coming back
I swore to the flag
And to my brothers in arms
That I would keep this land far from harm
Not to die on a single man's whim
In whatever country was mean to him
And this war's not won
Because this war's never done
And the war's not won
Since 2001
Afghanistan, Libya
Pakistan, Syria
Yemen, Somalia, Iraq
Parent and child made to fight the same fight
And we don't know when they're coming back
Afghanistan, Libya
Pakistan, Syria
Yemen, Somalia, Iraq
Parent and child made to fight the same fight
And we don't know when they're coming back
