Sung by Suno
There's a PAIR OF BOOTS, a helmet and a gun,
Planted in the sand, baking in the sun,
To help remember just what was done before
That soldier had to leave.
No one answers that roll call list,
As they call out a name that everyone will miss,
A folded flag is what they'll give,
To the family at home that grieves.
Then ...
Chorus:
They play taps and everyone salutes,
They play taps and everyone salutes,
They play taps and everyone salutes,
That PAIR OF BOOTS.
There's a father holding up a purple heart,
Trying real hard not to fall apart,
So proud of a son who did his part,
And stood up for what he believed.
His mother's hands are empty with loss,
Wondering if it was all worth the cost,
But that's one bridge that's already crossed,
So she falls down on her knees.
Then ...
Repeat Chorus
There's a nation praying they'll come home soon,
Every soldier and every platoon.
Let the drums of war beat a different tune,
So we'll never have to see,
As ...
Repeat Chorus
That PAIR OF BOOTS.
