Le Voyage Magnifique

Battle Buddies

We're battle buddies, through and through,
fighting for the red, white, and blue,
always ready to take up the slack
and help the other get back on track,
remaining faithful and true.

I have slogged through the jungle with you
and formed a lasting bond like glue,
so we will always face the flack
as battle buddies.

Unity of spirit will ensue
when we find ourselves in a stew.
You know that I will have your back.
Together we can crack
the challenges we pursue
as battle buddies.
