Lyrics

A soldier of fortune
Came home from war
And wondered what he was fighting for
This sad-eyed soldier
He broke down and cried
Oh, he was so broke up inside
When will it end
When will it end
The bells toll
For those about to die
The battle's over
The war is won
But this soldier of fortune
He will carry on
He will carry on when all hope is gone
He will carry on
He's trained to kill
And kill he will
As we march along
Singing just another soldier song
Just another soldier song
I am a soldier of fortune
Destined to keep on marchin'
I can hear the pipers callin'
I am a soldier of fortune
Destined to keep on marchin'
I can hear the pipers callin'
