Stevie Wonder - Front Line



I am a veteran of the war

I up and joined the army back an 1964

At sixteen I just had to be a man at any cost

I volunteered for Vietnam where I got my leg shot off

I recall a quote form a movie that said "who's more a man

Than a man with a reason that's worth dyin' for"

They had me standing on the front line

They had me standing on the front line

They had me standing on the front line

But now I stand at the back of the line when it comes to gettin' ahead

They gave me a uniform and a tiny salty pill

To stop the big urge I might have for the wrong kind of thril

They put a gun in my hand and said "shoot until he's dead"

But it's hard to kill when 'please I'm your friend' echoes through your head

And the many happy families that have been ruined

But my mind is so brain-washed I'd prob'bly go back and do it again

I walk the neighborhood parading my purple heart

With a fear of agent orange that no one will stop...no

They had me standing on the front line

They had me standing on the front line

They had me standing on the front line

But now I stand at the back of the line when it comes to gettin' ahead

They had me standing on the front line

They had me standing on the front line

They had me standing on the front line

But now I stand at the back of the line when it comes to gettin' ahead

Would you believe I do?
