Blue Star

Well you have been a fighting man

Youve seen your share of war

Living for your Uncle Sam

Sam dont need you anymore

Youll be gone, youll be leaving

Youll be back home again

On Christmas or July fourth

I really dont remember when

And Im glad to see your doing well,

We all know just who you are,

Put your saber on the shelf

and well take down the ole blue star.

Well I remember when youd send me letters

and make my day when I was young

Photographs with M-16s

and money from Somalia

Youll be gone, youll be leaving

Youll be back home again

On Christmas or July fourth

I really dont remember when

And Im glad to see your doing well,

We all know just who you are,

Put your saber on the shelf

and well take down the ole blue star.

Your back home with your little girl

wild and pretty, blonde and blue

you cant help but be their world

and they cant help but look like you

Youll be gone, youll be leaving

Youll be back home again

On Christmas or July fourth

I really dont remember when

And Im glad to see your doing well,

We all know just who you are,

Put your saber on the shelf

and well take down the ole blue star.
