"Another moving song and performance that follows in the patriotic footsteps of Worley's memorable enduring and highly acclaimed song, 'Have You Forgotten?', that was released in 2003." David Bancroft, USA Patriotism! founderJanuary 2009
Lyrics
The first thing I did when that plane finally landed was kiss the ground The next thing I did was to go find my friends down at the old hangout Drank some beer and talked a lot about old times But when the booze finally hit Billy Joe Grimes He said I don't know what it is, but you seem different to me
I said I just came back from a place where they hated me and everything I stand for A land where our brothers are dying for others who don't even care anymore If I'm not exactly the same good old boy that you ran around with before I just came back from a war
The very next morning I took a walk through the neighborhood I thought it's been so long since I've been in a place where everything is good People laughing and children were playing And as I watched em I found myself praying Lord keep em safe here at home in the land of the free
Cuz I just came back from a place where they hated me And everything I stand for A land where our brothers are dying for others who don't even care anymore If I'm not same little freckled face boy That grew up in that house next door I just came back from a war
I hope you cherish this sweet way of life And I hope you know that it comes with a price
I just came back from a place where they hated me And everything I stand for A land where our brothers are dying for others who don't even care anymore Chances are I never will be the same I really don't know anymore I just came back from a war
