Sadr City (萨德尔城) - Corb Lund[00:00:00]

Honey[00:00:17]

Don't tell the boys that I'm talking like this[00:00:17]

'Cause I can't have 'em thinking I'm scared[00:00:20]

The truth is I ain't afraid of nothing no more[00:00:24]

I'm tired and I just don't care[00:00:29]

How many tours is too many tours[00:00:32]

My baby she'd like to know[00:00:36]

Always nagging at the back[00:00:40]

Of my mind is that Jody's there when I go[00:00:43]

Never let them send me back to Sadr City[00:00:48]

Never let them send me back[00:00:52]

Some sh*t went down[00:00:56]

Down in Sadr City[00:00:57]

Some sh*t went down in Iraq[00:01:00]

I ain't going back[00:01:03]

Well I was[00:01:11]

There in '04 when it first got hot[00:01:12]

And Mahdi's local fighters emerged[00:01:15]

Earned a purple heart via 762[00:01:20]

And a second later during the surge[00:01:23]

Didn't know nothing back then didn't care[00:01:27]

It was get it on and kick us some a**[00:01:31]

Couldn't tell a Sunni from a Shi'a from the Kurds[00:01:35]

But they educated me pretty fast[00:01:39]

Never let them send me back to Sadr City[00:01:43]

Never let them send me back[00:01:47]

Some sh*t went down[00:01:51]

Down in Sadr City[00:01:53]

Some sh*t went down in Iraq[00:01:55]

I ain't going back[00:01:58]

Well it was pretty touch and go from the very first night[00:02:06]

Fiercest action I'd ever seen[00:02:10]

Ambush come and we had to dismount[00:02:15]

Get busy fighting out in the[00:02:18]

Street[00:02:21]

Well all hell broke loose under fire from the rooftops[00:02:22]

Haji launching RPGs[00:02:26]

Fighting running battles with militias in the alleys[00:02:30]

Dragging on and on week after week[00:02:34]

Taking hits at fifty meters from the Shrine nearby[00:02:38]

But they wouldn't let us light up a Mosque[00:02:42]

Then our tanks rolled in[00:02:46]

Real hard real heavy[00:02:47]

But they couldn't help the guys that we'd lost[00:02:50]

Well I don't know if it matters to the folks back home[00:03:24]

But they say they're all supporting the troops[00:03:29]

There's no time anyway to be dwelling on that[00:03:32]

Out here thinking's only for fools[00:03:36]

And as long as there's no lack of young man willing[00:03:40]

To ride to the sound of the guns[00:03:44]

I'll be waking up dreaming of the Mahdi Army[00:03:48]

And of both sides losing their sons[00:03:52]

They ain't a gonna send me back to Sadr City[00:03:56]

They ain't a gonna send me back[00:04:00]

My orders came through and babe it isn't pretty[00:04:04]

It's Afghanistan instead of Iraq[00:04:08]

They're sending me back[00:04:11]
