 Told  you I was joining the army, had no excuse
 seemed the right  the to do
 and you  called  me a fool
 said I’d come back mean  and cruel
Aaid  I just wanted to make my grandfather proud
 even though  he’s not around
 been gone  since I  was thirteen
I’m  still worried what he’d think  about me
 playing  this guitar ain’t gonna cut for long
 me singing these  songs
 don’t compare  to what he did  over there
 need to prove  I can carry  my share
 take  on my own  load to bear
to  me, it only  seems fair
