Thought the War Was Over

Thought the War was Over By Franklin Price 10/17/2015 Thought the war was over When I returned from Cam Ranh Bay Skin cancer popped it's ugly head And still is in the way Getting a little tired of Having all the fun Burning, freezing, cutting Since one nine seven one Freezing liquid nitrogen Pre-cancers it will treat Biopsies when suspicious So the cancers we can beat When they return as positive Which happens more and more The doctor does his duty To keep the current score Sometimes a scrape and cauterize Could be a cut and stitch Recovery obnoxious I am kidding it's a ***** So far my score's phenomenal All positive for me Still zero for the cancer That's what I like to see My life's worth all the trouble I enjoy it oh so much Thought that I would share with you To try to stay in touch I hope your life's as good as mine That what you're going through Results in continued good life The alternative is not for you Don't feel sorry for me I'm still happy as can be Grateful for everything I have Hope the same to you from me
