Little Tommy enlisted in the army Even though he never been away from his mommy Said he wanted to see the world Tell his family and friends good bye Gave a big kiss to his girl Now he's off to boot-camp Never did much with his life but now here's his big chance He sits and shines his shoes and creases his pants He knows his weapon inside and out His parents worry about the risk of war But he acts like they don't know what there talkin' about Sent out in combat on the front line ready die With a tear in his eye he says god I didn't realize It would end like this and this is what he said with His last breath

Old man Jones lived down aways He had a little house where him and his family use to stay Nicest one on the block If he seen you drive by he wave you down and make you stop Drank cheap boos smoked big cigars And he loved to tell He didn't have a hateful bone in his body He didn't have problems with nobody The kind of person that would give you his shirt off his back He didn't care if you were white or black But on night he got car jacked They took his money, they took his car But when they took his life they went to far He closed his eyes and he starts to pray And this is the last thing his killers heard him say

Suzy was a girl I knew back in the day Couldn't take the rules at home so at sixteen she ran away fifty dollars in her pocket and nowhere to stay Now she's out on the streets were the pimps feed And the dealers fined the pray So now here she believes that drugs are the only thing That can set her free Cant hind on the regular parents at home sick and worried about there baby girl But theres never gonna be a happy ending She writes a letter and says this will be the last she's sending Forgive me mother forgive me farther But I just cant go on any longer She signs it with a kiss and drops it in the mail Four days later they fined her O.D'ed in a city motel I can read you what the rest of the letter said But I think you can already tell (it read)
