8th Of November - Big & Rich[00:00:01]
Said goodbye to his mamma[00:00:16]
As he left South Dakota[00:00:18]
To fight for the Red White and Blue [00:00:21]
He was nineteen and green with a new M-16[00:00:25]
Just doing what he had to do [00:00:29]
He was dropped in the jungle[00:00:33]
Where the choppers would rumble[00:00:35]
With the smell of napalm in the air [00:00:37]
And the sergeant said "Look up ahead"[00:00:41]
Like a dark evil cloud[00:00:50]
1 200 came down[00:00:52]
On him and 29 more [00:00:54]
They fought for their lives[00:00:59]
But most of them died[00:01:01]
In the 173rd Airborne [00:01:03]
On the 8th of November [00:01:07]
The angels were crying[00:01:09]
As they carried his brothers away [00:01:11]
With the fire raining down[00:01:15]
And the Hell all around[00:01:18]
There were few men left standing that day [00:01:20]
Saw the eagle fly [00:01:24]
Through a clear blue sky[00:01:26]
1965 the 8th of November [00:01:28]
Now he's fifty-eight[00:01:41]
And his ponytail's grey[00:01:43]
But the battle still plays in his head [00:01:45]
He limps when he walks [00:01:49]
But he's strong when he talks[00:01:51]
About the shrapnel they left in his leg [00:01:54]
He puts on a grey suit[00:01:58]
Over his Airborne tattoo[00:02:00]
And He ties it on one time a year[00:02:02]
And remembers the fallen [00:02:06]
As he orders a tall one[00:02:08]
And swallows it down with his tears [00:02:11]
On the 8th of November [00:02:15]
The angels were crying[00:02:17]
As they carried his brothers away [00:02:19]
With the fire raining down[00:02:23]
And the Hell all around[00:02:25]
There were few men left standing that day [00:02:27]
Saw the eagle fly [00:02:31]
Through a clear blue sky[00:02:34]
1965 the 8th of November [00:02:36]
Saw the eagle fly [00:02:57]
Through a clear blue sky[00:02:59]
1965 [00:03:02]
On the 8th of November [00:03:08]
The angels were crying[00:03:10]
As they carried his brothers away [00:03:12]
With the fire raining down[00:03:16]
And the Hell all around[00:03:18]
There were few men left standing that day [00:03:20]
On the 8th of November [00:03:24]
The angels were crying[00:03:27]
As they carried his brothers away [00:03:29]
With the fire raining down[00:03:33]
And the Hell all around [00:03:35]
There were few men left standing that day [00:03:37]
Saw the eagle fly [00:03:41]
Through a clear blue sky[00:03:44]
1965 the 8th of November [00:03:46]
The 8th of November[00:04:00]
The 8th of November[00:04:03]
He said goodbye to his mamma[00:04:09]
As he left South Dakota[00:04:11]
To fight for the Red White and Blue [00:04:14]
He was nineteen and green with a new M-16[00:04:17]
Just doing what he had to do[00:04:22]
