He said, ?Son,
Have you see the world?
Well, what would you say
If I said that you could?
Just carry this gun and you?ll even get paid.?
I said, ?That sounds pretty good.?
Black leather boots
Spit-shined so bright
They cut off my hair but it looked alright
We marched and we sang
We all became friends
As we learned how to fight
A hero of war
Yeah that?s what I?ll be
And when I come home
They?ll be damn proud of me
I?ll carry this flag
To the grave if I must
Because it?s flag that I love
And a flag that I trust
I kicked in the door
I yelled my commands
The children, they cried
But I got my man
We took him away
A bag over his face
From his family and his friends

They took off his clothes
They pissed in his hands
I told them to stop
But then I joined in
We beat him with guns
And batons not just once
But again and again
A hero of war
Yeah that?s what I?ll be
And when I come home
They?ll be damn proud of me
I?ll carry this flag
To the grave if I must
Because it?s flag that I love
And a flag that I trust
She walked through bullets and haze
I asked her to stop
I begged her to stay
But she pressed on
So I lifted my gun
And I fired away
The shells jumped through the smoke
And into the sand
That the blood now had soaked
She collapsed with a flag in her hand
A flag white as snow
A hero of war
Is that what the see
Just medals and scars
So damn proud of me
And I brought home that flag
Now it gathers dust
But it?s a flag that I love
It?s the only flag I trust
