Hello I'm just a boy
Now I'm a man
I'm going away 
I've got this plan
To save the world all that I can
I know this is the time babe
See one day this marine
Came to school pamphlet to me
Said freedom isn't free sign up with me
Put your life on that line babe
I know I know mom I'm coming back
Please don't cry like that
I swear I'm coming back no not Iraq
I think it's Afghanistan babe
I know I know I know dad
It's gonna be cool
They'll pay for school so you don't have to
I'm no fool
I'm sure they asked you to go to Nam babe

I want to fly up there with eagles
And spread my wings wherever we go
I hear the sounds of snare drums and bugles
And I would die alongside my heroes

Hello I'm just a boy now I'm a man
I'm on a mission Afghanistan 
AK in both my hands it's for the Afghans
They're all mine babe
The guys out here go toe to toe
They're lonely as hell their wives are home
At least they know they're not alone
Just kick some ass and go back home in time babe
I know I know I know mom I said I'd write
But I can barely sleep at night after last nights firefight
I swear war isn't kind babe
Dad how you doing are you proud
I'd send you pics but I'm not allowed
I lost my legs hospital now Dad they hit us from behind babe

I want to fly up there with eagles
And spread my wings wherever we go
I hear the sound of snare drums and bugles
And still I would die alongside my heroes

I heard the screams come down the hall
I heard commands and kill them all
I'm in this bed IV and all nurse where'd you put my gun
And then a man walked in the room
Shot Bobby Keith and shot me too
I felt no pain god pulled me through
No white light how about you dude
I know I know I know Mom I'm sorry
I can hear you crying
Paint my room red white and blue
For goodness sakes I love you too
Dad how you doing are you proud
I'd come on home but I'm on this cloud
Instead looking down
Singing

I got to fly
Up there with eagles
I spread my wings
Wherever we gone
They played the sounds
Of snare drums and bugles 
The day I died
Alongside my heroes
