I don't know nothing ‘bout nobody or no one
The whiskey keeps me talking ‘til my money's all gone
The only soul I have is in these worn out shoes
I'm just another monkey that's on the juice
Now I got a new pair of boots, a rifle I can keep
A tattooed sacred heart, a paycheck each week
I'm a fighter not a lover, a rolling stone
A girl I never met sends me letters from back home
Before the war
I was lost without a sign
Before the war
It was the devil all the time
Before the war
Iwas going out of my mind
Before the war
From cowboys and indians to the pool halls and cinema
I played in the streets, I prayed in the bars
Now I'll march in time until I can't dance no more
You don't know what you lose, when you never ha dit before
Before the war
I was lost without a sign
Before the war
It was the devil all the time
Before the war
I was going out of my mind
Before the war
Now listen to me…
If you saw how I used to live, you would have died
Now I got a band of brothers fighting right by my side
I don't want this war party to come to an end
Cuz back there brutha I'm as good as dead
Before the war
I was lost without a sign
Before the war
It was the devil all the time
Before the war
I was going out of my mind
Before the war
