Find the cost of freedom, buried in the ground,

Mother Earth will swallow you,

Lay your body down.

Interpretation

The cost of freedom can be found buried in the earth in cemeteries around the world. This song was written during the Vietnam War when many Americans were questioning if the lives lost were truly contributing to defending freedom at home.
