50,000 Names

In the style of

George Jones

Lyrics

there's teddy bears
and high school rings

and old
photographs that
mamas bring
the daddies
with their young boys
playin' ball

there's combat boots
that he used to wear

when he was sent
over there
there's fifty
thousand names
carved in the wall

there's cigarettes
and there's
cans of beer

and notes that say
i miss you dear
and children
who don't say
anything
at all

there's purple hearts
and packs of gum

fatherless
daughters and
fatherless sons
and there's
fifty thousand names
carved in the wall

they come from
all across this land
in pickup trucks
and minivans
searchin' for a boy
from long ago

they scan the wall
and find his name
the teardrops fall
like pourin' rain
then silently
they leave a gift
and go

there's stars of david
and rosary beads

and crucifixion
figurines
and flowers
of all colors
large and small

there's a
boy scout badge
and a merit pin

little american flags
waving in the wind
and there's
fifty thousand names
carved in the wall

there's
fifty thousand names
carved in the wall
