13 stripes and 50 stars
Make up the US flag
What helped us get each star and stripe
Were the people with the army dog tags
They fight for all of us
Safe and sound at home
They fight to keep us free
So freely we may roam
The fall so we can stand
They get hurt so we dont
They live in our thoughts and prayers
And forget them, we sure wont
