Lyrics
It is the middle of the night right in the middle of the street It could be uptown, downtown but I can feel that beat There is a marchin' drum there is a song unsung It could be your dream, my dream it's not the only one I'm a soldier marchin' in an army Got no gun to shoot But what I got is one guitar I got this one guitar I see the risin' smoke I hear a heartbreak joke Hey all my brothers and sisters I think it's time we spoke I've only got six strings but like a bell they ring It's like a jet plane, insane crashin' in my brain...cause I'm a soldier marchin' in an army Got no gun to shoot But what I got is one guitar I got this one guitar And it goes...na, na, na So if you get knocked down you gotta take a stand For all the outcast, dead last who need a helping hand So get your tambourines and turn your amps up loud And raise your voices, voices up above this crowd...cause I'm a soldier marchin' in an army Got no gun to shoot But what I got is one guitar I got this one guitar And it goes...na, na, na
