Harry Nilsson - Old Forgotten Soldier Lyrics
Reaching for a butterfly
Old soldiers never die
And the gun against their shoulder
Well, it gets a little older
And just like that old shoulder
Well, I'm an old, forgotten soldier
Since they put an end to war
And I like to tell my story
But you don't wanna hear about the war
I'm an old, forgotten campaign hero
Left without a cause
Because, they took away my wars
I'm an old, forgotten railroad
A broken, lonely ammo-train
Has been left out in the rain
I'm an old, forgotten part-time doughboy
I tried to save the world
The world was round
We fired around
Heard all around the world
I'm an old, forgotten campaign hero
Left without a cause
Because, they took away my wars
I'm an old, forgotten railroad
A broken, lonely ammo-train
And my rusty ammunition
Has been left out in the rain

Harry Nilsson Old Forgotten Soldier Comments
That intro is haunting, especially after spending the past few days reading about the eastern front and the horrors that both sides experienced. What a waste of human life on both sides.
