He still remembers that night as child
On his mother's knee

And quietly started to read,
And seeing a picture of Jesus he cried out,
"Momma, he's got some scars just like me."

Verse 3:
Now the boy's grown and moved out on his own
When Uncle Sam comes along.
A foreign affair, but our young men were there
And luck had his number drawn.
It wasn't that long till our hero was gone
He gave to a friend what he learned from the cross.

CHORUS: (they)
