40 acres and a mule 40 acres and a mule
If you believe that recruiting poster your a fool
40 acres and a mule 40 acres and a mule
Uncle Sam don’t want you once his dirty work is through
The history of war is to build the rich mans store
Cannon fodders always been a kingdoms cheapest fuel
They’re quick to sweep away those who protected us yesterday
Homeless hero’s sleeping in the bushes is just cruel
So many times they have lied to talk us into suicide
I even wonder who is buried in Grants Tomb
It’s a terrible price to pay for a parade Memorial Day
Watching it from a wheelchair soaked in drool
It’s more lucrative to beg with a missing arm and leg
Is a nickel in my cup really all I’m due
Whilly Peter burned off my skin now I’m uglier than sin
Some people wish I’d stay out of their view
In combat zones we bleed while a nation ignores our need
Coming home messed up just seems to be the rule
When traumatic stress settles in they lock me in a psycho bin
Cause they fear the damage they taught me how to do
Marines are first to fight we’re often first to die
How quickly we’re forgotten is sadly true
40 acres and a mule 40 acres and a mule
Uncle Sam don’t want you once his dirty work is through
