They were called
out the door
went to fight for
their country at war

Kissed goodbye
by Mom and Dad
hugged by wives
told them don’t be sad

All fought hard
some came back
others crossed over
no courage did they lack

On this day
we call Memorial Day
remember why they went
and hear what vets say

For they went to war
to fight for us to be free
and that is a lesson
important to me

When you walk down the street a
nd see our enlisted, stand tall
wave to them, cheer them
and give them a call
