A NAME ON A WALL
Uncle Sam called my name
I answered his call
My name was whispered in prayer
By my brother, sister, mom, wife, dear friends
Bullet with my name on it found me
In the jungle war called Viet Nam
My medic tried to save me
But God called me home.
Dragged out of the mud, placed in a bag
My buddies are angry
But over time I am forgotten
As they can't remember my name
Buried away from home
My name is cold on some stone
Family and friends used to come see me
Been many years since they have come
My name is placed on some dark blacken stone
Placed in a town called Washington, DC
35 years have come and gone since I parted this earth
Who dares to touch my name?
