Our Troops
As they pack their bags, tears well up in their eyes
Even if they don't want them to
Trying hard to say their goodbyes...
And go off to do what they have to do
Packing away memories of being a boy
No more laughter and fun with friends
It is time for our young boys
To go out and become men
Our hearts, love, and prayers are with you till the bitter end
Thinking of you each day...
As you troop forward and defend..
Making it a better U.S.A.
God be with you each and every one
May he keep you safe and happy
May he guide you by the light of the moon...
And bring ALL of you home soon
God Bless Our Troops
