Cold wind in the morning A telegram arrives
Bm Em G A Bm
Arriving with no warning Another mother cries
Bm Em A Bm
Husbands, sons and brothers Hailed the call to war
Bm Em G A Bm
Blinded by the others The promise: one for all
Em Am D C
What's it all in aid of? Obeying the command
Em Am D C C
Cold and tired and hungry Dying for some land

WHY DON'T YOU CRY, SOLDIER CRY?

ANOTHER LETTER, YOU SHOULD KNOW BETTER
Bm G Bm
CRY, SOLDIER CRY
A G
THERE WILL BE SORROW UNTIL TOMORROW
Bm G Bm
SO CRY, SOLDIER CRY
The fear and all the sadness
Of what it has become
In this world of madness
Another soldier gone
Salute the highest honour
The folding of the flag
Finally the end is
Another bodybag
And all the time your comrades
Their backs against the wall
A band of brothers fighting
One by one they fall
WHY DON'T YOU CRY, SOLDIER CRY?
ANOTHER LETTER, YOU SHOULD KNOW BETTER
CRY, SOLDIER CRY
THERE WILL BE SORROW UNTIL TOMORROW
SO CRY, SOLDIER CRY
What's it all in aid of?
Obeying the command
Cold and tired and hungry
Dying for some land
WHY DON'T YOU CRY, SOLDIER CRY?
ANOTHER LETTER, YOU SHOULD KNOW BETTER
CRY, SOLDIER CRY
THERE WILL BE SORROW UNTIL TOMORROW
SO CRY, SOLDIER CRY
