Lyrics:

[Chorus 1]
Do not weep, child: war is kind
For your father threw wild hands toward the sky
And his steed ran alone in the night
Do not weep, child: war is kind

[Verse 1]
On orphan now, you're the one
And what you recall of him
You look for now a man
Here in the callus of the southern ground
Where you buried him

[Verse 2]
A boy has risen to stand and you find his eyes as blue
And his heart is red and his soul is burnin' white
Ah, but you can't believe your eyes
When you find
That it's callin' him to the light
Like it called him to the line

[Chorus 2]
But do not weep, maiden: war is kind
As your lover tumbles in yellow trenches
Rage in his breast, gulps and dies
Do not weep, maiden: war is kind

[Verse 3]
Widow now he is gone
And how you long for him
And see him now in your son
Ah, but you can't believe your eyes as we go blind again
Blind again, the united state of Americans
Who are callin' now for their boys
Callin' now for your boy

[Chorus 3]
But do not weep, mother: war is kind
As you hang your heart humble as a button
On the shroud of your son
Do not weep, mother: war is kind
Do not weep, mother: war is kind
