““Desert Storm” by William Smith
I am the marine on the border of Kuwait,
I am the soldier, only God knows my fate.
I’m the sailor in a sea where I might die,
I am the pilot, breathing hell from the sky.
Twenty years ago, I was born in the U.S.A.,
I got sent to the Desert Storm, one August day.
I’m young and scared, but still full of pride,
I’m an American, and right is on my side.
Grand-dad served Old Glory in World War number two,
And I’m still defending the red, white, and blue.
Not one drop of blood is worth the oil in Kuwait,
I might kill a man, I don’t know enough to hate.
Hell I don’t even know if I’m going to win,
But I still believe that freedom’s not a sin.
The soldiers of Iraq are waitin’ there to die,
Both sides are still screamin’ the same warrior’s cry.
Why? Why? Why?
I am the marine on the border of Kuwait,
I am the soldier, only God knows my fate.
I’m the sailor in a sea where I might die,
And I am the pilot, breathing hell from the sky.”
