He said “Son have you see the world?

Well what would you say

If I said that you could?

Just carry this gun and you’ll even get paid”

I said “That sounds pretty good”

Black leather boots

Spit-shined so bright

They cut off my hair

but it looked alright

We marched and we sang

We all became friends

As we learned how to fight

A hero of war

Yeah that’s what I’ll be

And when I come home

They’ll be damn proud of me

I’ll carry this flag

To the grave if I must

Because it’s flag that I love

And a flag that I trust

I kicked in the door

I yelled my commands

The children they cried

But I got my man

We took him away

A bag over his face

From his family and his friends

They took off his clothes

They pissed in his hands

I told them to stop

But then I joined in

We beat him with guns

And batons not just once

But again and again

A hero of war

Yeah that’s what I’ll be

And when I come home

They’ll be damn proud of me

I’ll carry this flag

To the grave if I must

Because it’s flag that I love

And a flag that I trust

She walked through bullets and haze

I asked her to stop

I begged her to stay

But she pressed on

So I lifted my gun

And I fired away

The shells jumped through the smoke

And into the sand

That the now had soaked

She collapsed with a flag in her hand

A flag white as snow

A hero of war

Is that what the see

Just medals and scars

So damn proud of me

And I brought home that flag

Now it gathers dust

But it’s a flag that I love

It’s the only flag I trust

He said “Son have you seen the world?

Well what would you say

If I said that you could?”
