Sailors and Soldiers

Phil Ochs

[Chorus]
Sailors and soldiers
Uniform shoulders
They’re growing older
Over the sea

[Verse 1]
Troops they are leaving
Firmly believing
There’s no reason for grieving
Over the sea

[Verse 2]
Herded like cattle
They head for the battle
The rifles will rattle
Over the sea

[Bridge]
Far from the banner
Far from the glamor
Far from the planners who sent them to die

[Chorus]
Sailors and soldiers
Uniform shoulders
They’re growing older
Over the sea

[Verse 3]
Too young to be shaving
But the flags are waving
For the fury they’re braving
Over the sea

[Verse 4]
Proudly parading
With medals they’re laden
But their glory is fading
Over the sea

[Bridge]
Far from the banner
Far from the glamor
Far from the planners who sent them to die

[Chorus]
Sailors and soldiers
Uniform shoulders
They’re growing older
Over the sea
