WARSONG
(Why Did You Take Me Away From My Home?)
by Kenny Woods FROM THE 2007 UNISONG INTERNATIONAL SONG CONTEST
WARSONG (WHY DID YOU TAKE ME AWAY FROM MY HOME?)
"...this sounds like a classic...and you're telling it like it IS!"

WARSONG ALTERNATIVE
"...this one is nothing less than haunting...everyone on earth
needs to hear this thing..."
My God it’s true if it’s happening to you, they’re sending you far far away
Far from these farms with a truckload of arms, will you return one day?
You say, “I’ve played follow-the-leader before
but it feels like I’m fightin’ this war on my own
I’m bleedin’ and bruisin’ it looks like I’m losin’
Why did you take me away from my home?”Sheila she said, “My husband is dead, now I don’t know what I will do
I’ve a family to feed and no time to bleed, I wish none of this were true
You see I’ve had faith in my leaders before
but it feels like I’m mourning this war all alone
I’ve lost my love who’s wonderin’ from above
Why did you take me away from my home?” Late at night I can hear the cries of the innocents dyin’ each day
And when a man dies because another man lies
we wonder why this is the waySoldier says, “I was just following orders before
now it makes my blood boil and breaks every bone
Will I ever be back with my family?
Why did you take me away from my home?”
HATE IS SO MUCH MORE THAN A 4-LETTER WORD
