lyrics

well you could of wrote one letter
maura morrow of maine
when i took a shot from the desert fox
you could of eased the pain

you either end up dead or fed up
ef'd up and far from home
i got a scar and a purple heart
you got a heart of stone

why didn't you love me why

operation torch casablanca
algeria and libya beware
shining at night in tunisia
sister that's the rocket's red glare

my brother with the airforce in basra
kept the axis out of iran and iraq
when he wrote a letter to his favorite girl
she wrote a letter back

why didn't you love me why, when i needed you

shot by a c.c.f. sniper
orders of kim il sung l
eft for the gray face buzzards
stalin and mao tse-tung

now the lord is my commanding officer
stationed in heaven above a
nd i see i could have saved the whole wide world
it was never going to be enough

why didn't you love me why, when i needed you
