I know you say it's okay
I know you say
You're coming back some day
You wanna help the people
I really don't wanna see you go
Granny and mom were so, so brave
But me and Dust don't really feel the same
Doesn't anybody care what we say
I know America is not safe
But I don't wanna see my daddy
Go to war
I don't wanna see my daddy
Go to war
I don't wanna see my daddy
Go to war, go to war
I don't wanna see my daddy
Go to war
I've heard about the war on TV
(Oh no)
Don't really know what
Those big words mean
(Oh no no)
I know a lot of people
Seem to think
That you're doing the right thing
But me and Dust don't care what they think
We understand you want
To change some things
It isn't fair that often what I can't see
That they can take my dad from me
But I don't wanna see my daddy
Go to war
I don't wanna see my daddy
Go to war
I don't wanna see my daddy
Go to war, go to war
I don't wanna see my daddy
Go to war
Oh, there must be another way
(Another way)
Somehow, some way
You've gotta stay
(Please stay)
On a great big wall
I don't wanna see your name
(Oh, no, no)
If they ask me
Then I'll say
Don't take him
Oh, I don't wanna see my daddy
Go to war
I don't wanna see my daddy
Go to war
I don't wanna see my daddy
Go to war, oh no no
I don't wanna see my daddy
Go to war
I don't wanna see my daddy
Go to war, no no no
I don't wanna see my daddy
Go, go to war
I don't wanna see my daddy
Go to war
I don't wanna see my daddy
Go to war
Oh no no no
Oh no no
