What About Me Lyrics - Kris Kristofferson

I seen another soldier who got wasted in the war 

He said he left his soul there overseas 

The notion he defended doesn't matter anymore 

And circumstance had brought him to his knees 

We sat there in the silence of a cold and empty room 

Down the hall I heard a baby cry 

He looked up from the potion he was cooking in a spoon 

And nailed me with the anger in his eye 

Chorus: 

He said, do you really believe in freedom ? 

I said, I do 

He said, oh, what about me ?

They killed both of her parents in an undercover war 

For wanting all their children to be free 

She said, it's even sadder that it's in el salvador 

They named it for the savior don't you see 

Suddenly the truth was like a blinding flash of light 

Holy thunder rolled across the sky 

I stared into the wonder of the warrior jesus christ 

And destiny was burning in his eyes.

Chorus: 

He said, do you really believe in freedom ? 

I said, I do 

He said, oh, what about me ? 

And the sandinista said, do you really believe in freedom ? 

I said, I do 

He said, oh, what about me ?
