Aid and Attendance

We sing songs about our freedom
We always keep them in our prayers
We wave our flags and bow our heads
Support our Soldiers over there

But all across this nation
Probably right in your home town
There’s a group of weary Soldiers
With their world turned upside down
We asked them for their lives and they agreed
Now their asking for the benefits
That they thought were guaranteed
We sent them off to fight on foreign shores
But now they’re casualties of a bureaucratic war
With every flag draped procession
With every tear and every prayer
We remember those who gave their lives
For every battle we declare
But all across our nation
Probably right in your hometown
There’s a group of broken Heroes
Because their country let them down
We asked them for their lives and they agreed
Now their asking for their veterans benefits
That they thought were guaranteed
We sent them off to fight on foreign shores
But now they’re casualties of a bureaucratic war
We sent them off to fight on foreign shores
Hey America
Let’s give our Veterans something more
