G'day. I have been searching for these bloody lyrics in over a fecking year. I can barely remember fragments of lines. Basically, it is a song to an occupying soldier asking what lies they were told...and shit like that...the last lines are leave your british guns and leave us all alone....or something along those lines.....I am hoping that some one has an idea what I am speaking about....if not I will have to try and listen to the song again with more correct words.

I don't know how talk about heat is related with the song "soldier boy" but it seems it is. It must be, if the subject is still continued (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
I know! No matter there is hot or cold, a soldier must stand at his position. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

LOL, so I leave for a while and found my lyrics request to have gone into a discussion about many things...but the song itself...

I wish I knew who did it, but I do not....I will try and get some lyrics from the song, if I hear it again, and hope some one knows what I am talking about. I do not even know if the song is called"Soldier Boy", however since that is the refrain the singer sings, then I assume that is the title of the song.

When you look for lyrics you should always start from Triskelle web site, it is very rich source of songs and information about them. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)


Thanks Fionn. I'm honoured!

It's called Soldier Boy and it was written by a former POW from Strabane named Terry Boyle. It's on his album, At Your Pleasue, which he wrote in Long Kesh.

I know your watching from behind your ring of steel
I wonder do you wonder
How these people feel
A look of innocence
Still on your teenage face
How long before you start
To kill and start to hate
Soldier boy, soldier boy soldier boy


Did they bring uniforms
And picturesto your school
Make a romanticised
Professional of you
You're indestructible
You heard that bugger say
That's why you're living
In a bunker everyday
Soldier boy, soldier boy, soldier boy


How did your father look
When you were goin' away
Is he a working man
On unemployment pay
You say your mother
Is dependin' on you then
What will she do
If they don't bring you home again
Soldier boy, soldier boy, soldier boy


You know you'll soon regret
The day they sent you here
You'll never learn to take
The bitterness and fear
Each day your officers
Will put you on the line
Will they be with you
When some bullet breaks your spine
Oh boy, soldier boy, soldier boy


Your callous war machine
Is grinding people down
You'll find no welcome
In the cities or the towns,
When will you realise
This country's not your own
Pack up your foreign guns
And leave us all alone
Soldier boy, soldier boy, soldier boy
Soldier boy, soldier boy, soldier boy
