Remember me America I was once your son

I fought and died in Valley Forge with General Washington

I was there again at Gettysburg on a tragic, tragic day

When brother fought brother, the blue against the gray.

I was there with Teddy Roosevelt, a charge called San Juan Hill

Some came back to fight again but I just lay there still.

On D-Day June 6th 1944, we stormed the beaches of Normandy

We fought uphill every inch of the way.

We routed those Germans. We pushed them back

But look at the price we had to pay.

I heard the CO say one night in Korea,"We can take it, I know we will."

So I died again in a place called Pork Chop Hill.

Vietnam,Vietnam when we will ever learn?

I'm one of many thousands who never did return.

I left my wife, my town, my kids, my home so dear and warm

And died again in a scud attack in a place called Dessert Storm.

And now my blood's all over Afghanistan and I'm dying every day in Iraq

and I wonder how many Americans care if we ever make it back.

So in my eternity, my thoughts will go to thee,

You see, I won't forget you America.

But America, don't forget me.
