D on't cry mother dear your boy has left you for a couple years
H e's packed his bags packed in his courage
P ut away his fears and stepped into the u nknown
And p ostponed all c omplications yeah
A k iss goodbye and an upset stomach s ends me on my way
W hat I believe it gets me by it g ets me through the days
T ears fall and puddles form and d ays without an end
D etermination never building t he war has just begun
And it's 1 2 3 4 b oys are marching out to war

R ight left two-step o ff to the plane and the men come home
O h oh don't you cr y for me
O h oh I'm coming ho me to your ar ms
1 2 3 4 t ake the lead and I'll follow you
You're the m an with the plan I'm the pawn in your hand
P iece to be played sacrifice to be m ade oo h
It's my fate in your hand N.C. s
With my b rothers by my side form a line shoulders tight
I will p ush the right oh will you push the left-right?
If o ne man falls they don't move till he's up
A o ne-man unit at the wrist our handc uff
