I grew up in a small town, just a regular joe
Proud of my country, no matter where I go
I signed up, went overseas, fought a war to keep everybody free
War ain't easy, I hope you understand
This soldier came home, came home a different man
Sleep don't come easy, the dreams they wake me up
Sometimes I feel, feel like giving up
Sadness and anger, out of control
Hopeless feelings,can't let them go
Time is a healer, this I understand
The scars of war , cut deep in the soul of a man
The war is over, but not in my head
Too many memories, so few said
I grew up in a small town, just a regular joe
Proud of my country, no matter where I go
