CHRISTMAS TRIBUTE TO OUR POW/MIAS IN VIETNAM

" ONE POW/MIA'S CHRISTMAS DREAM "

AS I WANDER THE DARKNESS AND WAIT FOR THE LIGHT,

I THINK, OH LORD MAYBE THEY WILL COME FOR ME TONIGHT.

I HAVE WATCHED AND WAITED FOR TWENTY-EIGHT YEARS,

FOR THE WHIRL OF THE GREAT CAMOUFLAGED BIRD.

TONIGHT IS CHRISTMAS AND I DREAM OF MY FAMILY,

AND HOW THEY WOULD ALL BE GATHERED AROUND THE BEAUTIFUL TREE.

I WONDER DO THEY THINK OF ME,

OR AM I JUST SOME LOST MEMORY?

THE U.S.A. ASKED ME TO SERVE AND I SAID YES!

BUT LITTLE DID I GUESS.

THAT WHEN TIMES GOT TOUGH,

THAT THEY WOULD TREAT ME SO ROUGH.

NOW THEY SAY I AM DEAD,

NO! I AM STUCK IN HELL INSTEAD.

PLEASE COME BACK AND TRY,

I AM SO BROKEN HEARTED I CRY.

FOR THE TOUCH OF MY LOVED ONES HAND,

NOT TO BE DESERTED IN THIS FOREIGN LAND.
