109. Off To War

Daddy went to war last year.
Daddy went to war.
They called him when the foe came up.
He went because we're poor.

Daddy went to war last year.
Daddy went to war.
We used to throw a ball around.
We had fun galore.

Daddy went to war last year.
Daddy went to war.
Mommy cried and waved goodbye
As he sailed from the shore.

Daddy went to war last year.
Daddy went to war.
He went to fight the Israelites.
He went to settle a score.

Daddy went to war last year.
Daddy went to war.
He was the champion of our men.
He gave them hope and more.

Daddy went to war last year.
Daddy went to war.
David hit him with a stone.
He knocked him to the floor.

Daddy went to war last year.
Daddy went to war.
But he won't come back home again.
I'll see him never more.
