I knew a man, called him Sandy Cane.
Few folks even knew his name.
But a hero, yes was he.
Left a boy, came back a man.
Still many just don't understand
about the reasons we are free.
I can't forget the look in his eyes
or the tears he cried,
as he said these words to me.
All gave some and some gave all.
Some stood through for the red, white and blue,
and some had to fall.
And if you ever think of me,
think of all your liberties, and recall,
some gave all.
Now, Sandy Cane is no longer here.
But his words are oh so clear
as they echo throughout the land.
and all his friends who gave us all,
who stood the ground and took the fall
to help their fellow man.
Love your country and live with pride
and don't forget those who died.
America, can't you see
All gave some and some gave all.
Some stood through for the red, white and blue,
and some had to fall.
And if you ever think of me,
think of all your liberties, and recall,
some gave all.
