He was talking about the army while he passed his pipe around

An American deserter who found peace on Swedish ground

He had joined to seek adventure and to prove himself a man

But they tried to crush his spirit 'til his conscience ruined their plans

And he thought of those who suffer for the sake of honesty

All those who refuse to follow traitors to humanity

Here's to all the draft resisters who will fight for sanity

When they march them off to prison in this land of libety

Heed the threat and awesome power of the mighty Pentagon

Which is wasting precious millions on the toys of Washington

Don't forget the Draft Resister and their silent lonely plea

When they march them off to prison they will go for you and me

Shame disgrace and all dishonor wrongly placed upon their heads

Will not rob them of the courage which betrays the innocent
