FORGED BY FIRE ....Daryl Burgess/Ron Hellard it was hard for him to get out of bed when the phone rang, sleep-eyed she said Charlie's drunk again why don't you just let it ring through the years he'd alaways picked it up for the guy who came back and saved his butt what they have in common is a brotherhood so few could understand chorus they were forged by fire hard times you get beyond gives you an unbreakable bond forged by fire when you pray to god, bet the odds and walk through hell together you're forever forged by fire
the young GI said from his V A bed why you wanna hang out with us broken men when you could be spending your time with your family and friends he told him son, you're family too i see myself when i look at you in a place and time you don't forget and even tho we've just met we're chorus
he said goodbye GI see you next week then he rolled himself out to the street it was pretty hard for him to get his van and throw the wheelchair in the back he was headed home ready to unwind Charlie called can you help me one more time he said Chuck, I'll be there on the double for a brother, it's no trouble chorus
