Airborne Ranger Infantry

My daddy was a soldier in a foreign war But he doesn't like to talk about it any more He kept a picture of my mama right by his heart He'd give it one last look before the fighting would start He said all I ask is that you don't forget Cause the war's not over when the fighting ends There's a part of me that will always be Just a boy in a hole with an M16 Airborne Ranger Infantry I left my best friend lying in a pool of blood While I crawled away through the brush and mud If I could choose to go back again I'd die lying there next to him I still see his face when I close my eyes And I won't forget his sacrifice There's a part of me that will always be Just a boy in a hole with an M16 Airborne Ranger Infantry I didn't do it for the money Didn't do it for fame I didn't do it so the world would remember my name I did it for my family and my country And my brothers who died right next to me And all we ask is that you don't forget Cause the war's not over when the fighting ends There's a part of us that will always be Just boys in a hole with our M16s Haunted souls and memories Airborne Ranger Infantry
