The war was won, the battle over ran   The fire in the girl in the far east sun   The rhythm was swift, the boys they were alive   There will always be a clue in a dead man's eye      Way out west on any avenue   We always find the girls in the high heel shoes   The boys were shot, my father was a liar   There will always be a clue in a dead man's eye      The winds were heavy and the boys were shot   The river was red, all the lives we lost   The devil encounters makes you feel damned    To be alive      The war was won, the battle over ran   The fire in the girls in the far east sun   The rhythm was hot, my father was alive   Always be a clue in a dead man's eye      The spirit was broken but the girls were hot   The river was red, all the lives we lost   The devil encounters makes you feel damned   To be alive
