john edmond - troopie boy you've won lyrics
i’m sure you must have thought sometimes, while lying in the sticks
what the h-ll am i doin’ here, i don’t do this for kicks
there’s a peaceful town to the south of us and the beach of sand and sun
it’s you that fought to keep it and troopie boy, you won!
no matter what you’re thinking and i know the cost is high
to go through all that h-ll on earth and see your best friend die
to feel the world’s against you, and the headlines say your done
you slapped the devil in the face and troopie boy you’ve won!
although there are no flowers and a victory parade
prancing through the cities in a fancy motorcade
in god’s eyes you’re a hero and i know the time will come
when the good things will get back to you and troopie boy you’ve won!
no matter what you’re thinking and i know the cost is high
to go through all that h-ll on earth and see your best friend die
to feel the world’s against you, and the headlines say your done
you slapped the devil in the face and troopie boy you’ve won!
in the world there is no justice, it’s all a righteous face
but behind it is corruption, that infests the human race
you just keep your courage and teach it to your son
fight for what you know is right and troopie boy you won!
no matter what you’re thinking and i know the cost is high
to go through all that h-ll on earth and see your best friend die
to feel the world’s against you, and the headlines say your done
you slapped the devil in the face and
troopie boy you’ve won!
