“Don’t you remember, Ma, when I went off to war
You thought it was the best thing I could do?
I was on the battleground, you were home . . . acting proud
You wasn’t there standing in my shoes”

Dear Fedi,
I'm trying to find the name of a song. The first line of the chorus is sung by a woman and goes
"I won't be coming back here [no/any] more"
It's slow, about 30-40 bpm and has a 70's melancholy maybe slightly country feel. It's acoustic with little backing.
It's not Dorothy Yates or The Singing Cookies, who come up online.
I'd be grateful for any ideas/boosts! Thanks!
But you’re gonna have to serve somebody, yes indeed
You’re gonna have to serve somebody
Well, it may be the devil or it may be the Lord
But you’re gonna have to serve somebody

Count me out like sovereigns, payback for the good times
Right foot in the roses, left foot on a landmine
I'm not gonna be there tripping on the grapevine
They can sing the words while I cry into the bassline
Wear me out like Prada, devil in my detail
I swear it's getting harder even just to exhale
Backed up into corners, bitter in the lens
I'm sick of trying to hide it every time thеy take mine
Shut the light, shut the shade
You don’t have to be afraid
I’ll be your baby tonight

It’s a restless hungry feeling
That don’t mean no one no good
When ev’rything I’m a-sayin’
You can say it just as good.

I'll risk everything if it’s for you
A whisper into the night
Telling me it’s not my time and don’t give up
I’ve never stood up before this time
Down is not the way we go
Here's my chance, so I know that I can't give in
—"The Beginning" English cover, Gravity, Against the Current
Mama, put my guns in the ground
I can’t shoot them anymore
That long black cloud is comin’ down
I feel like I’m knockin’ on heaven’s door

Good evening. This is your Captain.
We are about to attempt a crash landing.
Please extinguish all cigarettes.
Place your tray tables in their
upright, locked position.
Black Rider Black Rider tell me when - tell me how
If there ever was a time then let it be now

Sooner or later you`ll make a mistake
I`ll put you in a chain that you never can break
Legs and arms and body and bone
I pay in blood, but not my own

I don't mind stealing bread from the mouths of decadence. 
Down along the cove, I got my suitcase in my hand
Down along the cove, I got my suitcase in my hand
I said, “Lord have mercy, baby
Ain’t you glad that I’m your man?”

I’m a-thinkin’ and a-wond’rin’ all the way down the road
I once loved a woman, a child I’m told
I give her my heart but she wanted my soul
But don’t think twice, it’s all right

Show me your ribs - I’ll stick in the knife
