I took a flag to a pawn shop
For a broken guitar
I took a flag to a pawn shop
How much is that guitar
I took a flag to a pawn shop
I Got me that guitar
Whats a flag in a pawn shop to me?

I Saw a man on the TV
In a mask with a gun
A man on the TV
He had a ten-year old son
I Saw a man on the TV
His son had a gun
He says that hes coming for me

I never loved the soldier until there was a war
Or thought about tomorrow
til my baby hit the floor
I only talk to God when somebodys about to die
I Never cherished Freedom

Freedom never cries.

I Wrote a song for a dead man
To settle my soul
A song for a dead man
Now Ill never grow old
I Wrote a song for a dead man
Now Im out in the cold
Whats a song to a dead man to me?

I never loved the soldier until there was a war
Or thought about tomorrow
til my baby hit the floor
I Only talk to God when somebodys about to die
I Never cherished Freedom

Freedom never cries...

You can cry for her
Die for her
Lay down your life for her
Kiss and wave Goodbye to her
Anything at all

You can cry for her
Die for her
Make up your mind to her
Anything at all

Theres a baby on the doorstep
Wailing away
Theres a baby on the doorstep
Longing for the day
Theres a baby on the doorstep
Whod give his life to take
A flag to a pawn shop
A flag to a pawn shop

May he forget why he is crying some day
