Eddy Grant - Barefoot Soldier Lyrics

Yeah, I been and talked to the devil
Been and talked, yeah
I asked him why the hell in heaven
Does he wanna wage war on me?

Yeah, I been up to see the pontiff
And I've seen the sage
To seek some kinda satisfaction
For the crime of our age

They said I would find your brother
Sleeping soundly in the rain
But they said you were a soldier
And you would never feel the pain

But I'm glad it's over
'Cause it breaks my heart
When I see you this way, oh lord
Barefoot soldier

Yeah, I heard they sold you something
Yeah they tried all on me
But I weren't looking for nothing
So they had to set me free

The devil, he said he was for justice
The spoon he's got, that's his gun
The pontiff's still looking for a cause
He wanna trap another one

Oh, but I'm glad it's over
You don't have to feel alone
Just let's say they nearly got you
Barefoot soldier

Oh, I'm glad it's over
Can't make the streets your home
Good God, they nearly got you
Barefoot soldier

I tried to beat the sage
Beat him at his own game
But he'd been on the streets too long
He knows how to make you pay

He's all the things he extols
But he'd never say
Oh wow, he's much too cool for that
You're hooked by remote controls

Oh, but I'm glad it's over
Couldn't sleep at nights
Look at you, you're such a terrible sight, oh lord
Barefoot soldier

Oh, I'm glad it's over
'Cause it breaks my heart
When I see you this way, oh lord
Barefoot soldier

Oh, barefoot soldier
Barefoot soldier
Barefoot soldier, oh lord
Barefoot soldier

I don't want the streets to hold you
Barefoot soldier
Asleep in the rain, oh lord
Barefoot soldier
Oh, asleep in the rain, oh lord
Barefoot soldier
