HOW MUCH BLOOD'S IN A BARREL?

What good is a gun, when it just collects dust
What good is a tank, when it’s left to rust
What good is money, when it’s put to defense
Unless it’s used, then it’s not well spent

We live by our honor, we die by the sword
In the name of our nation, in the name of our lord
We’ll pay with flesh until we win
Despite the cost of blood and skin

The road will end in heaven or hell
As we search for truth at the bottom of a well
But what life has a price in dollars and cents
To rape a land in the name of defense

(Chorus)
How much blood’s in a barrel?
How many pawns must be played
How many more must cross the ocean
Before it’s all too late?
