The Doors - The Unknown Soldier Lyrics

Artist: The Doors

Album: Miscellaneous

  • Songwriters: John Densmore, Robbie Krieger, Ray Manzarek, Jim Morrison

Wait until the war is over
And we're both a little older
The unknown soldier

Breakfast where the news is read
Television children fed
Unborn living, living dead
Bullet strikes the helmet's head

And it's all over
For the unknown soldier
It's all over
For the unknown soldier

Hut, hut, hut ho hee up
Hut, hut, hut ho hee up
Hut, hut, hut ho hee up

Comp'nee
Halt
Pree-zent!
Arms!

Make a grave for the unknown soldier
Nestled in your hollow shoulder
The unknown soldier

Breakfast where the news is read
Television children fed
Bullet strikes the helmet's head

And, it's all over
The war is over
It's all over
The war is over

Well all over, baby, all over baby
Oh over, yeah, all over baby
Woo, hah, hah, all over
All over, baby, oh woa, yeah
All over, all over
