SERVE OUR COUNTRY WELL
Original Song by ©Daniel Hammond
Seems like a lifetime since we said goodbye
Dozens of letters but no reply
I wish I could have come along but I’ll be here when you get home
Daddy serve our country well
A decorated captain came to our front door
He gripped his hat with nervous hands his eyes pacing the floor
The only words I heard him say as he turned to walk away
Your daddy served our country well
We got an invitation from the Arms Department
It said that Dad was a hero signed by the President
He offered his sincere regrets and in closing said to me
Your daddy served our country well
Bridge:
Daddy you served our country well and I’m proud to wear your medal
I’ll take good care of Momma while you’re gone
And when life’s war is done we’ll join you in heaven
Daddy you served our country well
Tag:
And when life’s war is done we’ll join you in heaven
Daddy you served our country well
