My brother will be home from Iraq soon; I can breathe again!
You sonofabitch, you just had to enlist

Fight the good fight and be the hero.

What were you thinking, that you were brave?

Well, Soldier, what do you think now?



You sonofabitch, wanted to go to war.

Four kids and a wife living on the base,

Haven’t seen their Daddy, birthdays alone.

All they want is to see your face.



You sonofabitch, how long is eternity?

Did you ever think it was just eighteen months?

Living in the devil’s sandbox

No liquor, no sex, no fucking fun.



You sonofabitch, I worried every minute.

Just thinking about it makes me sick,

But you’ll be home soon and the drinks are on me

Because I’ve missed my brother, you sonofabitch.
