A SOLDIERS THOUGHTS TO HIS DAD
On most days I sit behind a desk.
I’d rather be at home,
under my shade tree,
Where I can get some rest.
But when it’s time to train,
I will always do my best.
They taught me everything I need to know dad,
so you can put your mind at rest.
When duty calls,
I’m first in line.
You know I’m on my way.
Until the end of the battle,
I’ll be there to stay.
I’m sorry if I ever leave you behind dad,
To fight in someone else’s war.
But if I’m taken don’t you worry,
Cause with the eagles I will soar.
So when you think of me.
Don’t think about bombs, bullets,
Or how I dodged the rounds.
Picture a soldier, standing tall.
His eyes lowered to the sun,
As he sounds off loud.
Remember I did it all for you dad,
Just to make you proud.
