Karl Sapp - Welcome Home Soldier lyrics
I watched a young soldier, Take his seat on the plane, The guy by the window said Son, what's your name? He said, Hi I'm Jimmy, Just back from overseas, And when these boots hit down in Texas, I'm gonna... drop to my knees, Because I ain't seen my wife, In 18 months and 14 days The man smiled at him and said, Well let me be the first to say, Welcome home, Welcome home, It's good to have you back where you belong You fought hard for this land you love And I thank you for all of us We're proud to call you one of our own Welcome home Then the man looked away and said, I know how you must feel I spent two long years in Vietnam And I got back to Jacksonville, There were protest signs and picket lines And some girl spit in my face, Hey I was just trying to make this world a safer place, Then his voice started trembling In his eyes I saw a tear He said, I didn't need a hero’s welcome But it'd sure been nice to hear Welcome home Welcome home It's good to have you back where you belong You fought hard for this land you love And I thank you for all of us We're proud to call you one of our own, Welcome home Well the band was playin, And the crowd was cheering, As we came walking through that gate, Then the soldier stopped and Turned to the man standing near him, He saluted him and said Sir, I know it's a little late but, Welcome home, Welcome home, It’s good to have you back where you belong You fought hard for this land you love And I thank you for all of us We're proud to call you one of our own, Welcome home Yeah we're so proud to call you one of our own, Welcome home. |
