Written by:Kenny Alphin/John Rich[00:00:02]
Said goodbye to his momma as he left South Dakota[00:00:16]
To fight for the red white and blue[00:00:20]
He was 19 and green with a new M-16[00:00:24]
Just doing what he had to do[00:00:29]
He was dropped in the jungle where the choppers would rumble[00:00:33]
With the smell of napalm in the air[00:00:37]
And the sergeant said look up ahead[00:00:42]
Like a dark evil cloud 1,200 came down[00:00:50]
On him and 29 more[00:00:54]
They fought for their lives[00:00:59]
But most of them died in the 173rd Airborne[00:01:00]
On the 8th of November the angels were crying[00:01:07]
As they carried his brothers away[00:01:11]
With the fire raining down and the hell all around[00:01:15]
There were few men left standing that day[00:01:19]
Saw the eagle fly through a clear blue sky[00:01:23]
1965 the 8th of November[00:01:28]
Now he's 58 and his pony tail's gray[00:01:41]
But the battle still plays in his head[00:01:45]
He limps when he walks but he's strong when he talks[00:01:49]
About the Shrapnel they left in his leg[00:01:53]
He puts on a gray suit over his Airborne tattoo[00:01:57]
And he ties it on one time a year[00:02:02]
And remembers the fallen as he orders a tall one[00:02:06]
And swallows it down with his tears[00:02:10]
On the 8th of November the angels were crying[00:02:14]
As they carried his brothers away[00:02:18]
With the fire raining down and the hell all around[00:02:22]
There were few men left standing that day[00:02:27]
Saw the eagle fly through a clear blue sky[00:02:30]
1965 on the 8th of November[00:02:35]
Saw the eagle fly through a clear blue sky[00:02:56]
1965[00:03:01]
On the 8th of November the angels were crying[00:03:07]
As they carried his brothers away[00:03:11]
With the fire raining down and the hell all around[00:03:15]
There were few men left standing that day[00:03:19]
On the 8th of November the angels were crying[00:03:23]
As they carried his brothers 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[00:03:36]
Saw the eagle fly through a clear blue sky[00:03:40]
1965 the 8th of November[00:03:45]
The 8th of November[00:03:59]
