"Away From Home Soldiers"

Written by: Helen DeBaker-Vorce

Chorus:

Away from home soldiers, America's proud of you.

Leaving your friends and your families and all you have there are memories to hang onto.

Away from home soldiers, America's proud of you.

Giving yourselves and doing your best for your fellow man and for

your countryland.

America, America's proud of you.

Verse:

It's not easy for a woman, For a man

To go off to places where they've never been

Strength in mind and a body that is strong

It takes to win this war that has begun

Soldiers on Land, Ships and Planes

May never see there homeland again

Going where the bombs and bullets fly

There's a chance one will take their life
