Lyrics: Charles Dickens/Nima Khaste
Music: Charles Dickens/Nima Khaste
Another man done gone
Another man done gone from the county farm
Another man done gone
I didn't know his name
I didn't know his name I didn't know his name
I didn't know his name
He had a long chain on
He had a long chain on he had a long chain on
He had a long chain on
He killed another man
He killed another man he killed another man
He killed another man
Oh to them you're just a number
To me you're still a friend
But I'm waiting for the thunder
When lightning strikes again
Yes to them you're just a figure
But I remember your name
Now you've gone and got your haircut
All your new friends look the same
Oh to them you're just a weapon
Just some finger on a gun
To go fight for our country
For some new war to be won
For the old world to be new
To be ours to be run
Oh to be or not to be
You're just another man done gone
Another man done gone
Another man done gone from the county farm
Another man done gone
I didn't know his name
I didn't know his name I didn't know his name
I didn't know his name
Oh I know I aingt your keeper
And I know that time's been hard
But I'm frightened that you'll come home
In a box and from afar
Dressed with a flag pinned with a star
They'll make you into a martyr
And lay your grave with flowers
Yeah you fought so well and bravely
Just to keep some in power
Just some bully up in his tower
