  He was talkin' 'bout the army while he passed his pipe around  He was talkin' 'bout the army while he passed his pipe around
  An American deserter who found peace on Swedish ground  An American deserter who found peace on Swedish ground
  He had joined to seek adventure and to prove himself a man  He had joined to seek adventure and to prove himself a man
1  But they tried to crush his spirit 'til his conscience ruined their plan   But they tried to crush his spirit 'til his conscience ruined their plans 1

  And we thought of those who suffer for the sake of honesty  And we thought of those who suffer for the sake of honesty
  All those who refuse to follow traitors to humanity  All those who refuse to follow traitors to humanity
3      3
  Here's to all the draft resisters who will fight for sanity  Here's to all the draft resisters who will fight for sanity
2  When they march 'em off to prison in this land of liberty   When they march them off to prison in this land of liberty 2
      
  Heed the threat and awesome power of the mighty Pentagon  Heed the threat and awesome power of the mighty Pentagon
  Which is wasting precious millions on the toys of Washington  Which is wasting precious millions on the toys of Washington
      
3  Don't forget the draft resisters and their silent lonely plea   Don't forget the Draft Resisters and their silent, lonely plea 3
4  When they march 'em off to prison, they will go for you and me   When they march them off to prison, they will go for you and me 4

  Shame, disgrace and all dishonor, wrongly placed upon their heads  Shame, disgrace and all dishonor, wrongly placed upon their heads
  Will not rob them of the courage which betrays the innocent   Will not rob them of the courage which betrays the innocent
