Saskia & Serge - Mama hey's a soldier now lyrics

rate me

Hidden in the warmth from your arms

You were always there when he cried

And you always held him too tight

But you did it with your heart

Mama, he's older now

Growing up without any fear

Although you never broke apart

But now he's breaking your heart

When he walks out of the door

Mama's, he's a soldier now

For the first time he's free

And he's happy while he's joining the army

He's still your son

Night and day you've rocked your baby

And you wanna give in (And you wanna give in)

But you wanna keep the past you want

Don't you see he's a man?

And he's a soldier now

You're still dreaming of the child

Little boys keep growing

You got to break the chain

You know it but you just won't see it

No, oh no!

You just won't see it

Now he fights for freedom in a land

In a country oh, so far away

And all you can do is sit and wait

For a letter or a sign

Mama, he's a soldier now

For the first time he's free

And he's happy while he's joining the army

He's still your son

Night and day you've rocked your baby

And you wanna give in (And you wanna give in)

But you wanna keep the past you want

Don't you see he's a man?

And he's a soldier now

You used to treat him like a child

Little boys keep growing

You'll have to break the chain

You know it but you just won't see it

You used to treat him like a child

Little boys keep growing

You'll have to break the chain

You know it but you just won't see it

You used to treat him like a child

Little boys keep growing

You'll have to break the chain

You know it but you just won't see it

You used to treat him like a child
