8th Of November (Unplugged Version) - Big & Rich[00:00:00]
Said goodbye to his momma[00:00:30]
As he left south dakota[00:00:32]
To fight for the red [00:00:34]
White and blue[00:00:36]
He was 19 and green with a new m-16[00:00:38]
Just doing what he had to do[00:00:43]
He was dropped in the jungle[00:00:46]
Where the choppers would rumble[00:00:49]
With the smell of napalm in the air[00:00:51]
And the sergeant said look up ahead[00:00:55]
Like a dark evil cloud [00:01:03]
1 200 came down on him and 29 more[00:01:06]
They fought for their lives[00:01:12]
But most of them died in the 173rd airborne[00:01:14]
On the 8th of november the angels were crying[00:01:20]
As they carried his brothers away[00:01:25]
With the fire raining down and the hell all around[00:01:29]
There were few men left standing that day[00:01:33]
Saw the eagle fly through a clear blue sky[00:01:37]
1965 the 8th of november[00:01:42]
Now he's 58 and his pony tail's gray[00:01:55]
But the battle still plays in his head[00:01:59]
He limps when he walks[00:02:03]
But he's strong when he talks[00:02:05]
About the shrapnel they left in his leg[00:02:07]
He puts on a gray suit over his airborne tattoo[00:02:12]
And he ties it on one time a year[00:02:16]
And remembers the fallen as he orders a tall one[00:02:20]
And swallows it down with his tears[00:02:25]
On the 8th of november the angels were crying[00:02:29]
As they carried his brothers away[00:02:33]
With the fire raining down and the hell all around[00:02:37]
There were few men left standing that day[00:02:42]
Saw the eagle fly through a clear blue sky[00:02:46]
1965 the 8th of november[00:02:51]
Saw the eagle fly through a clear blue sky[00:03:12]
1965[00:03:17]
On the 8th of november the angels were crying[00:03:24]
As they carried his brother away[00:03:28]
With the fire raining down and the hell all around[00:03:32]
There were few men left standing that day[00:03:37]
On the 8th of november the angels were crying[00:03:41]
As they carried his brothers away[00:03:46]
With the fire raining down and the hell all around[00:03:50]
There were few men left standing that day[00:03:54]
Saw the eagle fly through a clear blue sky[00:03:58]
1965 the 8th of november the 8th of november[00:04:03]
The 8th of november[00:04:17]
Said goodbye to his momma[00:04:25]
As he left south dakota[00:04:27]
To fight for the red white and blue[00:04:29]
He was nineteen and green with a new m-16[00:04:33]
Just doing what he had to do[00:04:38]
