[00:00:02] Written by：Kenny Alphin/John Rich

[00:00:16] Said goodbye to his momma as he left South Dakota

[00:00:20] To fight for the red white and blue

[00:00:24] He was 19 and green with a new M-16

[00:00:29] Just doing what he had to do

[00:00:33] He was dropped in the jungle where the choppers would rumble

[00:00:37] With the smell of napalm in the air

[00:00:42] And the sergeant said look up ahead

[00:00:50] Like a dark evil cloud 1,200 came down

[00:00:54] On him and 29 more

[00:00:59] They fought for their lives

[00:01:00] But most of them died in the 173rd Airborne

[00:01:07] On the 8th of November the angels were crying

[00:01:11] As they carried his brothers away

[00:01:15] With the fire raining down and the hell all around

[00:01:19] There were few men left standing that day

[00:01:23] Saw the eagle fly through a clear blue sky

[00:01:28] 1965 the 8th of November

[00:01:41] Now he's 58 and his pony tail's gray

[00:01:45] But the battle still plays in his head

[00:01:49] He limps when he walks but he's strong when he talks

[00:01:53] About the Shrapnel they left in his leg

[00:01:57] He puts on a gray suit over his Airborne tattoo

[00:02:02] And he ties it on one time a year

[00:02:06] And remembers the fallen as he orders a tall one

[00:02:10] And swallows it down with his tears

[00:02:14] On the 8th of November the angels were crying

[00:02:18] As they carried his brothers away

[00:02:22] With the fire raining down and the hell all around

[00:02:27] There were few men left standing that day

[00:02:30] Saw the eagle fly through a clear blue sky

[00:02:35] 1965 on the 8th of November

[00:02:56] Saw the eagle fly through a clear blue sky

[00:03:01] 1965

[00:03:07] On the 8th of November the angels were crying

[00:03:11] As they carried his brothers away

[00:03:15] With the fire raining down and the hell all around

[00:03:19] There were few men left standing that day

[00:03:23] On the 8th of November the angels were crying

[00:03:28] As they carried his brothers away

[00:03:32] With the fire raining down and the hell all around

[00:03:36] There were few men left standing that day

[00:03:40] Saw the eagle fly through a clear blue sky

[00:03:45] 1965 the 8th of November

[00:03:59] The 8th of November

[00:04:01] The 8th of November

[00:04:08] Said goodbye to his momma as he left South Dakota

[00:04:12] To fight for the red white and blue

[00:04:16] He was nineteen and green with a new M-16

[00:04:21] Just doing what he had to do
