Ribbons And Fish (the war song) – Buck Buchanan

I'm not the devil, I'm not the devil's friend
I unleash fury, I fight until the end
I take the heat, I stand the pain
All I ask of you, is "get me home again"

I don't count the days no more
Makes me wonder what they signed me up for
I keep holdin' on
I know somethins' wrong
It doesn't matter like before

Blood on the pavement, blood on the sand
Keep the "black gold" flowin', money changin' hands
Where are the "patriots" sent us here to die?
They're on the evenin' news, tellin' another lie

I'm not the same man, kissed you goodbye that day
I gave up a little, they took the rest away
But I'll be all right, just takes a little time
Livin' in the cross-hairs, no peace of mind
