Too painful to stand at attention
as he did back in the day
but this man, he's still a soldier
inside he's always that way
fought a lifetime for this country
chose a career we can never repay
I'm thankful for all he's given me
more than words can ever say
We're Blessed with various freedoms
all gifts, given to us from him
this man he is still a soldier
May God Bless him
and his "Hero Within"
This man he is still a soldier
and he casts a big shadow to fill
to the men and the women still fighting
I salute you all and always will.
