Girl In The War
Lyrics
Peter said to Paul, “You know all those words we wrote
Are just the rules of the game and the rules are the first to go
But now talking to God is Laurel begging Hardy for a gun
I got a girl in the war, man, I wonder what it is we done”

But now talking to God is Laurel begging Hardy for a gun
“But I got a girl in the war, Paul, her eyes are like champagne
Sparkle bubble over and in the morning all you got is rain
Is turn up the music and pray that she makes it through”
If they can't find a way to help her, they can go to Hell”
And the angels fly around in there but we can't see them
They sparkle bubble over and in the morning all you got is rain
I got a girl in the war, man, I wonder what it is we done”
Paul said to Peter, “You got to rock yourself a little harder
Peter said to Paul, “You know all those words we wrote
“But I got a girl in the war Paul the only thing I know to do
And I got a girl in the war, Paul, I know that they can here me yell
“Because the keys to the Kingdom got locked inside the Kingdom

Are just the rules of the game and the rules are the first to go
If they can't find a way to help her, they can go to Hell
Paul said to Peter, “You got to rock yourself a little harder
Pretend the dove from above is a dragon and your feet are on fire”
Pretend the dove from above is a dragon and your feet are on fire”
