The Call of Duty
The Call To Duty
Brave men and women across the sea
Fighting for freedom for you and me
If you don’t fight in another hemisphere
The enemy will bring the battle over here.
Through IADs and sniper fire
You still hold that bold desire
To serve and protect
For the president elect
And your country men,
Fighting battles we don’t always win.
In blazen sand and cold desert nights
The thoughts are still running through
your head of yesterday’s fight.
You protect your country and fellow solders
You give all
Even if you fall
You have still gone beyond your call.
