My life and times
The Rookers “to the vets”

I was watching the d day to victory special and this song came in my head. I can’t find the track on YouTube so if you want go to their site and download it.

Johnny was hungry living in a cage 
Went down, signed up, lied about his age
 Didn’t know where, didn’t know why 
Nothing to lose if he lived or died 
Jumped on a boat and stormed the sand
 Went out screaming with gun in hand 
Didn’t know you, didn’t know me
 Fought for us, for us to be free 
To the Vets, To the Vets we owe our lives 
To the Vets, To the Vets show your pride 
To the Vets, To the Vets with any rank
 To the Vets, To the Vets give ‘em thanks 
Johnny is now all cold and alone 
Cell like room is what he calls home 
Didn’t know you, didn’t know me 
Fought for us, for us to be free 
You and I can never change the his past 
Heroes memories we can make last 
Now be a man and shake his hand 
Pride in our heroes, pride in our land
