Fathers are pleading, lovers are all Mothers are prayin', our sons back home (Tell 'em it) You them away, yes, you did now, on ships and planes To a war facing death in vain
Bring the home (Bring 'em alive) the boys home (Bring 'em alive)
Bring the home (Bring 'em alive) Bring the home (Bring 'em alive)

Can't you see 'em 'cross the sky? All the soldiers that have died to get home Can't you see tryin' to get home? Tryin' to get home, they're to get home
all fire on the battlefield (Tell 'em it) men have already been wounded and killed
Bring the home (Bring 'em alive) Bring the home (Bring 'em alive)
Bring the home (Bring 'em alive) Bring the home (Bring 'em alive)
(Why you) the ships around (Everybody oughta) Lay weapons down (Mothers, and lovers, can't you see them?)
to get home Can't you see them to get home (Have mercy) to get home Tryin' to get
the boys home (Bring 'em alive) the boys home (Bring 'em alive)
Bring the boys (Bring 'em alive) the boys home (Bring 'em alive)

What they doin' there now (Bring 'em alive) When we need 'em here now? (Bring 'em alive)
