Ballad for the Fallen Soldier

And he tried to give his all

This is a ballad for the fallen soldiers
I believe he's still alive

Wishin' daddy would come home

But don't give up yet
Who's got the answer
He had just went off to fight
For the things they thought were right
That he's missing in action
He had just went off to fight
So determined to survive
This is a ballad for the fallen soldiers

I sing the ballad for the fallen soldiers

So many people
I sing the ballad for the fallen soldiers
For the things we thought were right
In DC his name is on the wall
What could it be
He sends his regrets
For the things we thought were right
Waitin' like me
This is a ballad for the fallen soldiers
I was the only child
I sing the ballad for the fallen soldiers

This is the ballad for the fallen soldiers
I believe he's still alive
I wrote to my Congressman
And another day and another night
I sing the ballad for the fallen soldiers
His country wanted him to fight
So determined to survive

Me and mom couldn't sleep at night
I sing the ballad for the fallen soldiers
