Syria

Lyrics

Nails and bombs and dying son
 Daughter is nearly three
 Give a man my coin
 Take a boat with my family
 I've heard all about the sunshine
 But all I've seen is rain, rain, rain, rain
 Raining bombs upon our home
 Cannot return again
 What's a man to do, what's a man to do
 When everything's been taken from you
 What's a man to do, what's a man to do
 Nails and bombs and a dying son
 What's a man to do
 ♪
 I know nothing of the ocean
 I've been reared a farming man
 Chin up above the water
 'Til your feet hit the sand
 We're floating in the darkness
 Now they're talking 'bout the tides, tides, tides, tides
 I've got everything to lose
 My wife and children by my side
 What's a man to do, what's a man to do
 When everything has been taken from you
 What's a man to do, what's a man to do
 Nails and bombs and a dying son
 What's a man to do
 ♪
 Life's my God-given right
 Goddamn this holy war
 Don't know who they're fighting against
 Don't know who they're fighting for
 Spend my time praying to God
 Praying for peace, peace, peace, peace
 What's the use of praying to God if my
 God ain't hearing me?
 What's a man to do, what's a man to do
 When everything has been taken from you
 What's a man to do, what's a man to do
 Nails and bombs and a dying son
 What's a man to do
 What's a man to do
 What's a man to do
 ♪
 Pray, pray, pray
 Pray, pray, pray
