Fly Fly O, butterfly This little boy With a gun, thinking, it’s just a toy Fly Fly O, butterfly This little boy A soldier he is, yet still, he’s a boy Fly Fly O, butterfly This little boy Learned to fire, ‘cos of indecent lie Fly Fly O, butterfly This little boy He’s badly wounded, ‘cos of his toy Fly Fly O, butterfly This little boy No longer a soldier, nor, a little boy Fly Fly O, butterfly This little boy Not breathing, so he can not tell a lie Fly Fly O, butterfly This little boy Show him, your world, without a gun Fly Fly O, butterfly This little boy Tell him, he’s still a boy, not a soldier Fly Fly O, butterfly This little boy Warn him, he’ll get hurt, when he fire Fly Fly O, butterfly This little boy Guide his soul, to Enchanted Kingdom
