lyrics

3 days coming, and I'll be overseas
3 days coming, the army's shipping me
I'll be fighting for my country and dying to be free

first I'm going to Winnipeg, see the family I've hardly known
say goodbye to mom and dad and my little brother who's probably now fully grown
give a kiss to my sis, and remember who it is I'm fighting for

then i'm going to british columbia, a place i've never been
british columbia, wanna see the sights i've never seen
oh rocky mountains, help me forget my destiny

3 days coming, darling i'll be gone
3 days coming, darling i'll be gone
I'll be standing in Afghanistan with a rifle in my arms

3 days coming, i might not be back again
3 days coming, this might be the end
if i don't make it back, go down to the moonshine café and buy a drink for all my friends

3 days coming, i might not be back again
3 days coming, this might be the end
if i don't make it back, go down to the moonshine café and buy a drink for all my friends

Oh 3 days coming
