Draft Resister

[Verse 1]
He was talkin' 'bout the army
While he passed his pipe around
An American deserter
Who found peace on Swedish ground

[Verse 2]
He had joined to seek adventure
And to prove himself a man
But they tried to crush his spirit
'Til his conscience ruined their plans

[Verse 3]
And we thought of those who suffer
For the sake of honesty
All those who refuse to follow
Traitors to humanity

[Chorus 1]
Here's to all the draft resisters
Who will fight for sanity
When they march them off to prison
In this land of liberty

[Verse 4]
Heed the threat and awesome power
Of the mighty Pentagon
Which is wasting precious millions
On the toys of Washington

[Chorus 2]
Don't forget the Draft Resisters
And their silent, lonely plea
When they march 'em off to prison
They will go for you and me

[Outro]
Shame, disgrace and all dishonor
Wrongly placed upon their heads
Will not rob them of the courage
Which betrays the innocent
