Lyrics
AWAY FROM HOME SOLDIERS
Written by: Helen Maria DeBacker-Vorce
CHORUS:
Away from home Soldier's, America's proud of you.
Leavin' your friends and your familie's,
And all you have there are memories to hang on to.
Away from home Soldiers, America's proud of you.
So far away, may God Bless, givin' yourselves and doin'
your best for your fellow man and for your country land.
America, America's proud of you,
VERSE:
It takes courage for a woman, for a man.
To go off to places where they've never been.
Strength of mind and a body that is strong.
It takes to win this war that has begun.
CHORUS:
Away from home Soldier's, America's proud of you.
Leavin' your friends and your families,
And all you have there are memories to hang on to.
Away from home Soldiers, America's proud of you.
So far away, may God Bless, givin' yourselves and doin' your best,
for your fellow man and for your country land,
America, America's proud of you.
VERSE:
Soldiers on land, ships and planes.
May never see their homeland again.
Strength of mind and a body that is strong.
It takes to win this war that has begun.
CHORUS:
Away from home Soldiers, America's proud of you.
Leavin' your friends and your families,
And all you have there are memories to hang on to.
Away from home Soldiers, America's proud of you.
So far away, may God Bless, givin; yourselves and doin' your best,
For your fellow man and for your country land.
America, America's proud of you,
