A young man proud of my country
Raised my right hand with honor and pride
Promised to protect and defend it
Even if it meant my life
Ch:
And at night I can still see the jungle
Hear the thunder of blades in the sky
Smell the scent of death all around me
See metal coffins in my dreams at night
Tormented by screams of men dying
The awful noises of war
The sounds of enemy gunfire
have pierced my heart to the core
Ch:
God in his mercy brought me safely through
On my way back to family and friends
Going home with twelve young heroes
That had given their lives for this land
