Album: Mr Love & Justice
We sing our songs of freedom and we sing our songs of peace
We sing about sweet harmony for to make the fighting cease
Let's sing one song for the folks tonight that are sleeping on the streets
Come on and sing their souls back home

Oh, oh won't you sing along with me?
Come on, oh, oh raise your voices now with me
And let them know that we want them back home from wherever they may be
Come on and sing their souls back home

The wind blew and the birds they flew and they scattered everybody wide
Gathered up their loved ones, they were running from the tide
Now if we don't get these people back then I fear this town will die
Come on and sing their souls back home

Oh Lord it's hard, don't you know, to be living in days like these
Terror and war do nothing but shatter families
So let's reach out with all our hearts to our soldiers overseas
Come on and sing their souls back home
Bring 'em home now
We sing our songs of freedom and we sing our songs of peace
We sing about sweet harmony for to make the fighting cease
Let's sing one song for the folks tonight that are sleeping on the streets
Come on and sing their souls back home

Oh, oh won't you sing along with me?
Come on, oh, oh raise your voices now with me
And let them know that we want them back home from wherever they may be
Come on and sing their souls back home

The wind blew and the birds they flew and they scattered everybody wide
Gathered up their loved ones, they were running from the tide
Now if we don't get these people back then I fear this town will die
Come on and sing their souls back home

Oh Lord it's hard, don't you know, to be living in days like these
Terror and war do nothing but shatter families
So let's reach out with all our hearts to our soldiers overseas
Come on and sing their souls back home
Bring 'em home now
