This is actually a song my band sings but I thought I'd share it with ya'll and see what you think.


Verse 1:
Now there he stands
His mamma's only boy
She's been there through the hard times
She's laughed with the joy
So he asks her one more time
To be there by his side

Chorus:
Cause he's going off to war
To keep this country free
So mamma understand that you little soldier boy has now become a man
He's gonna fight this war
He's gonna do what's right
So kiss him now and keep him in your prayers at night

Verse 2:
Stepping on the plane
He turns and waves good-bye
Hoping it's not for the last time
But at peice if it is
He turns from his mother
So he doesn't see her cry

Chorus Repeat

Bridge:
He's gonna fight this war
He's gonna do what's right
So mamma kiss him now
And keep him in your prayers at night

Know yourself before you try to know someone else.
