These Old Combat Boots
These Old Combat Boots
These old combat boots,
have sure been through a lot.
Hiking through rice patties,
It’s the only pair I got.
Walking miles on patrol,
They never get a break.
Going up and down the mountains,
How much more can these boots take.
Most of the time, there always wet,
Not much time to let them dry
Were Searching for POW camps,
Sometimes it makes you cry.
