Current song lyrics
Said goodbye to his momma as he left South Dakota<br />To fight for the red, white and blue<br />He was 19 and green with a new M-16<br />Just doing what he had to do<br />He was dropped in the jungle where the choppers would rumble<br />With the smell of napalm in the air<br />And the sergant said...look up ahead<br />Like a dark evil cloud, 1,200 came down on him and 29 more<br />They fought for their lives but most of them died in the 173rd Airborne<br /><br />[Chorus:]<br /><br />On the 8th of November the angels were crying<br />As they carried his brothers away<br />With the fire raining down and the hell all around<br />There were few men left standing that day<br />Saw the eagle fly through a clear blue sky<br />1965, the 8th of November<br /><br />Now he's 58 and his pony tail's gray<br />But the battle still plays in his head<br />He limps when he walks but he's strong when he talks<br />About the Shrapnel they left in his leg<br />He puts on a gray suit over his Airborne tattoo<br />And he ties it on one time a year<br />And remembers the fallen as he orders a tall one<br />And swallows it down with tears<br /><br />[Chorus]<br /><br />Saw the eagle fly through a clear blue sky<br />1965...<br />On the 8th of November the angels were crying<br />As they carried his brother away<br />With the fire raining down and the hell all around<br />THere were few men left standing that day<br /><br />[Chorus]<br /><br />Said goodbye to his momma as he left South Dakota<br />TO fight for the red, white and blue<br />He was nineteen and green with a new M-16<br />Just doing what he had to do

Said goodbye to his momma as he left South Dakota<br />To fight for the red, white and blue<br />He was 19 and green with a new M-16<br />Just doing what he had to do<br />He was dropped in the jungle where the choppers would rumble<br />With the smell of napalm in the air<br />And the sergant said...look up ahead<br />Like a dark evil cloud, 1,200 came down on him and 29 more<br />They fought for their lives but most of them died in the 173rd Airborne<br /><br />[Chorus:]<br /><br />On the 8th of November the angels were crying<br />As they carried his brothers away<br />With the fire raining down and the hell all around<br />There were few men left standing that day<br />Saw the eagle fly through a clear blue sky<br />1965, the 8th of November<br /><br />Now he's 58 and his pony tail's gray<br />But the battle still plays in his head<br />He limps when he walks but he's strong when he talks<br />About the Shrapnel they left in his leg<br />He puts on a gray suit over his Airborne tattoo<br />And he ties it on one time a year<br />And remembers the fallen as he orders a tall one<br />And swallows it down with tears<br /><br />[Chorus]<br /><br />Saw the eagle fly through a clear blue sky<br />1965...<br />On the 8th of November the angels were crying<br />As they carried his brother away<br />With the fire raining down and the hell all around<br />THere were few men left standing that day<br /><br />[Chorus]<br /><br />Said goodbye to his momma as he left South Dakota<br />TO fight for the red, white and blue<br />He was nineteen and green with a new M-16<br />Just doing what he had to do
