Lyrics

A cool breeze blowin' on a warm summer day
the gang is all there, they say come on let play
first hit of the game, rang out like a gun
we heard breaking glass and knew what we'd done
the other boys scattered like a squirrel up a tree
and I stood tall, faced my neighbor's door, and said

Chorus
Send Me, I'm not affraid
I'll take my honor to the grave
A man is made from the inside out
and thats what pride is all about
send me, send me

Graduation came and went in the brink of an eye
war was on the news and all the people asked why
terror had come to the heartland one day
turned america's skies from blue the dark gray
troops were called out to the land across the sea
and I stood tall, packed my bags, and said

REPEAT CHORUS

A crazy leader in a land far away
tore apart families and america's way
sun beat down on the blistering sand
as we soldiers obeyed the chain of command
volunteers were needed for a front line infantry
I stood tall, and prayed to my god

REPEAT CHORUS TO END
