I Left My Home And Joined the Army

I left my home for the Army
I left my home for the Army
the day I left, my momma cried
said 'son, don't go, you're gonna die'
I left my girl
the baby still inside
said I'll be back soon
we'll have a better life
I left my girl
the baby still inside
tears on her face
she begged me not to die
These lonely days
in the Army,
i wanna run away
from this Army,

I left my home
for the Army,
packed my dreams away
for the Army
The day I left
my momma cried
begged me 'son, dont go you know your're gonna die
I quit my job
for this Army
life was hard in the Army
But I came back home
from the Army
Heard the guns report somewhere above me
and mommas breaking heart damning the god damn Army
In a cemetery two blocks down from
where I left my home and joined the Army
