Written by Donnie Purnell, Kip Winger, Reb Beach
It's all the same, and then suddenly You see the frame, but turn away Faces in time, that's when I was your hero
Wrap my soul in cellophane Drown my secrets in the rain Johnny comes marchin' home again Hey tin soldier, the war ain't over Bang bang bang beat the drums of war Don't know the name don't know the tin soldier
Times up, comin' down Silver stars watch 'em tumbling down We all fall down
Cold war runnin' through my veins Don't know the name don't know the face of The tin soldier Yeah! Yeah! yeah!
Come hide inside, come in under Do you hear the guns, do you hear the drums
Wrap my soul in cellophane Purple heart hangin' on a chain Only the battleground has changed Hey tin soldier, the war ain't over Johnny comes marchin' home again Don't know the name don't know the face of The tin soldier
