Soldiers Dream (Lyons, Doug) Country, soldier's perspective, patriotic, religion Take care of mum while I'm in Vietnam You're too young to understand why I have to go away Must go for Uncle Sam and the country that I love Pray to end this cruel war so no more will die I sit alone thinking of you - I come home in memories
