[00:16.162]I have people to free, they're depending on me
[00:20.606]So I can't afford to die
[00:24.303]Get them safely back, then I won't stay too long
[00:32.135]I'll be leaving soon for London
[00:36.026]So I'll look this war straight in the eye
[00:40.782]Only thirty days so I can't afford to die.
[00:48.086]When I think of the dead, that go round in my head
[00:52.404]No I can't afford to die
[00:56.220]So the thing to do is pretend that they weren't there
[01:04.206]With my baby at home waiting
[01:08.066]I can give myself a little sigh
[01:13.182]Only thirty days so I can't afford to die.
[01:52.092]God ain't taking my hand, not to no promised land
[01:56.031]So I can't afford to die
[02:00.114]So I'll cease my command before another bomb
[02:08.233]If I see my home a free man
[02:12.038]I'll remember why I never cried
[02:16.153]Only thirty days so I can't afford to die

I have people to free, they're depending on me
So I can't afford to die
Get them safely back, then I won't stay too long
I'll be leaving soon for London
So I'll look this war straight in the eye
Only thirty days so I can't afford to die.
