    Gave up my girlfriend and my family

    traded them in for an M16

    Afghanistan Pakistan Yemen Iraq

    I don’t care if I ever come back

    From poor families how far we roam

    So the rich kids can just stay at home

    When I come home with PTSD

    The VA hospital won’t care for me

    I’ll probably end up homeless out in the dark

        When I came back from Luang Prabang

        I didn’t have a thing where my balls used to hang

        But I had a wooden medal and a fine harangue

        Now I’m a fucking hero

        Mourn your dead land of the free

        If you wanna be a hero, follow me

        Mourn your dead land of the free

        If you wanna be a hero, follow me
