Journey Home Country
Boy *** Journey home country
boy, The last trip you must take, Tears
are falling like the rain, Many hearts now
surely ache.
You are one of the
fallen, Faithful till the end of the
day. Through fate you are here now, Life
should not have ended this way.
 Always ready and willing to
give, Even as you lay your life down, Many
will gather to honor you, A fallen hero flags
surround.
Journey home country
boy, The last trip you must take, You
served your country well, Duties you ne'er
forsake.
Mom and Dad's hearts are
breaking. Their child now gone forever
more, A folded flag to replace you, Peace,
their hearts sadly implore.
 Look around and remember, The
proud young serviceman, Gallantly standing in
harm's way, He answered each
command.
Journey home country
boy, Hearts filled with sorrow ache. Your
journey has now ended, You died for freedom’s
sake.
