Dedicated to Mike Latter, 2nd Battalion of the Royal Canadian Regiment, Afghanistan

lyrics

Bankin’ bloody money
For sanity back home
Mama’s medication
For the cancer in her bones
He’s gonna bear the burden
He’s gonna play the game
He’s gonna sweat in the badlands
Till the anchorman says his name
Blessings from the padre
Keepin’ his blood wet
Faith hope and charity
Buttoned in his breast
Well he ain’t much for prophets
And he ain’t much for saints
But now he’s believin’ with both hands
That someday he’ll be saved
When the bullets came down
When the bullets came down
When the bullets came down he became a believer
When the shots rang out
When the shots rang out
When the bodies fell down he became a believer
They’ll bring home his body
But his mind will still remain
Bloodied bruised and battered
On a searing desert plain
He’s gonna live his life out
Sick with guilt and pain
And if there’s a God well does he care to soothe
The mind of the insane?
Well he’s shot down
Yeah where’d he go?
Welll he’s shot down
Where’d he go?
Where’d he go?
Woah oooooh
Where’s your savior now?
Woah oooooh
Lord where are you now?
Woah oooooh
Where’s your savior now?
Woah oooooh
Lord where are you now?
He became a believer
He became a believer
He became a believer
He became…
