Fifteen sparrows feasting on my lawn
Fifteen sparrows feasting on my lawn
Story behind the song
The second song I ever wrote.
Lyrics
Fifteen sparrows feasting on my lawn,
Fifteen sparrows feasting on my lawn,
It’s the only life they’ll ever lead.
Smoked filled room with coffee and tea
It’s the only life I care to lead
As the sun sets in the sky,
Mans worries will never die.
And as the sun sets in the sky,
I can hear the babies cry.
As the sun sets in the sky,
I can hear the mother sigh
And As the sun sets in the sky,
An another soldier dies
Hard, hard, it’s a hard life to live
Man gets up at a quarter to six,
Works his hart out till it bleeds
Young boy died today,
No food for him to eat.
Hard, hard, it’s a hard life to lead,
Doesn’t it make your hart bleed.
And as the sun sets in the sky,
Mans worries will never die.
