Coming Home


He taught him how to Shoot and fish and hunt, Took him on his first date, And congratulated him when he got the girl. He wants his best friend back She showed him the way Made him do chores and take a bath She was the first girl to love him She wants her baby back He taught her everything How to get away with sneaking out, And how to get anything she wants. She looks up to him for everything She wants her protector back His officers taught him well He protects his country just like he should Little do they know, It’s time for their soldier to come back home
