soldiers who went to Nam Who in freedom's
name, were sent to war That many thought
would never last These
soldiers embarked on foreign land In the jungle of I remember how they
hurt I remember their
pain Today I want to
shake their hands For these forgotten
soldiers then Left as boys and
came back as men They stay in
my heart For me at least,

home, no one cheered in line No job could they
even find, They were not
loved, though they gave their blood For many thought
what they did was wrong Yet they did it for
country, loud and strong They could not
vote, but were drafted to war They tried their
best to meet the call Some travelled
to different lands So did not have to
fight in freedom's name But the forgotten
soldiers who gave their all Did not have a
friend, who they could call Now, many years
later, let us remember them Those who fought in
