He Said Don't Call Me a Heroe, Just Call me a Friend,
I'm Your Allie and I'm Here Talk To You Till my End,
He'd Talk About God, Christ and Prayer and How He
Couldn't Wait To Go Way Up There."
I Asked How Do You Know? That's Where your Gonna Go?
How are You So Certain? That's God's Gonna Open
Up His Curtain and Let You In..
How Do You Know that Your One of the Few Men,
That's Rising Up To Join Him in Heaven?"
...He Smiled at me, Like He'd Never Done Before,
I Sat Down and He Told Me About June of 1944,
My Country had Done So Much For Me,
I Wanted to Give it Back Some More, So I Enlisted in the War
I was a Big Red One, I was a Son of a Gun,
I Had Bullets to Dodge, and Strongholds to Sabotage,
I Wrote Letters to My Fiance Cindy,
and I Stormed the Beaches of Normandy
Yes, I Fought in the Biggest War, I even Seen
My Dead Brothers Bodies Wash Up To Shore
My STG 44 Would Drop Men Like You to The Floor,
I Recieved the Highest Rank, Taught Soldiers Smaller
Then You How To Drive a Tank,
I Held My Colt 45 to try and Survive,
But After All the Stuff I've Seen,
I Wish I wasn't Alive."
"Even a Saint can Sin and I Can't Wait till they Let Me In,
I'll Reunite with my Mate, When I meet my Fate,
And I'll See the Pearly Gate, I Already Know on the Day I Die,
That I Won't Fry, and I will Fly, Wake up With an Angel in My Eye,
And She'll Ring Her Bell Cause I've Already Served my Time in Hell."
"He Inspired Me To Get Down On One Knee,
He Didn't Insist, But I Couldn't Resist,
I Grabbed me a Paper and I Went to Enlist,
I'm Not Old Enough to Talk, But I'm Young Enough tp Listen,
I Drove a Tank Through a Sand Dune
Always Stayed Up Late Lookin' at the Moon,
And I Returned in "2004" on the Month of June,
I Went Back to the Courtyard Where I Met that Vet,
His Name Was General Stall, Only When He Saw My Uniform,
He Wasn't Happy Nor Proud at All,
I'm Sorry, Even after You Warned Me I still Did Sin,
Do You Think God Will Ever Let me in?
I Looked up at His Old Face,
and I asked Him Again.
With His Pride He Replied.."
"Even a Saint can Sin and I Can't Wait till they Let Me In,
I'll Reunite with my Mate, When I meet my Fate,
And I'll See the Pearly Gate, I Already Know on the Day I Die,
That I Won't Fry, and I will Fly, Wake up With an Angel in My Eye,
And She'll Ring Her Bell Cause I've Already Served my Time in Hell...
I Teared Up and Said "So Have I as Well."
