Old man sits in the public park-Sun has set and soon comes dark! Last bottle is empty, throat is dry-No place to sleep, it's cold outside!
He lost his friends in a war-Back in 1944! Once he stood there with a gun-Now he's tired, old and done!
Once he fought for the Fatherland-When Russians came, he fought like a man! We owed him lot but we've betrayed-He did his part, we never paid!
He never got out anything-From what leaders promised to him! You'll get your share when the war is won-Now they treat him like a scum!
How it feels now, did you win? Was it worth everthing? The land's still free, but they've forgot-Just who to thank for we have got?
Once he fought for the Fatherland-When Russians came, he fought like a man! We owed him lot but we've betrayed-He did his part, we never paid!
