You want to help the people,
I really donât want to see you go,
Renny and Momma say youâre so brave,
But me and Dus donât really feel the same,
Doesnât anybody care what we say,
I know Americaâs not safe,
(Chorus)
But I donât want to see my daddy go to war
I donât want to see my daddy go to war
I donât want to see my daddy go to war, go to war
I donât want to see my daddy go to war
Iâve heard about the war on TV, (Uh oh)
Donât really know what those big words mean, (Ooh no no)
I know a lot of people seem to think,
That youâre doing the right thing, (Oh oh)
Me and Dus donât care what they think,
We understand you want to change something, (Oh oh)
It is the ferret of the war that I canât see, (No no no)
But they can take my daddy from me,
(Chorus)
Ohhh, Ohhhh,
Ohhh, Ohhhh,
Oh, there must be another way, (another way)
Somehow, someway youâve got to stay, (please stay)
Cause on that great big wall I donât want to see your name, (oh no no no no)
If they ask me, then Iâll say, (donât take him)
Ooh,
