The Troops
My opinion of the plight of our soldiers in Iraq
Rated:
E
by
Avg Rating: (6)
I just can't stop thinking about the Troops
They should be singing a cappella on the stoops
They don't have the right body armor
We need them as a lawyer or farmer
Most of them don't know why they're there
Our government doesn't seem to care
We keep sending them back again
They need a break, but who knows when
Let them come home to thrive and grow
We'll see all that homegrown talent flow
