I know you say it's okay
I know you say you're coming back some day
You wanna help the people
I really don't wanna see you go
Granny and mom were so, so brave
But me and Dust don't really feel the same
Doesn't anybody care what we say
I know America is not safe
But I don't wanna see my daddy go to war
I don't wanna see my daddy go to war
I don't wanna see my daddy go to war, go to war
I don't wanna see my daddy go to war
I've heard about the war on TV
Don't really know what those big words mean
I know a lot of people seem to think
That you're doing the right thing
But me and Dust don't care what they think
We understand you want to change some things
It isn't fair that often what I can't see
That they can take my dad from me
But I don't wanna see my daddy go to war
I don't wanna see my daddy go to war
I don't wanna see my daddy go to war, go to war
I don't wanna see my daddy go to war
Oh, there must be another way
Somehow, some way you've gotta sta
On a great big wall I don't wanna see your name
(Oh, no, no)
If they ask me then I'll say (Don't take him)
Oh, I don't wanna see my daddy go to war
I don't wanna see my daddy go to war
I don't wanna see my daddy go to war, go to war
I don't wanna see my daddy go to war
But I don't wanna see my daddy go to war
I don't wanna see my daddy go to war
I don't wanna see my daddy go to war, go to war
I don't wanna see my daddy go to war
Oh no no no
Oh no no
