Lyrics

[Verse 1] Me and some guys I served with Over there in Desert Hell Got together a while back Everybody's doin' pretty well Sanchez had a couple new tattoos Price is a computer nerd Somebody asked about T-Bone I said the last I heard [Chorus] He made it back like the rest of us Put his rifle down and tried to pick his life back up But when you see things no one should see Sometimes the guy you used to be Has to fight a battle of his own He made it back but he still ain't made it home [Verse 2] He went back to Connie You know they're from Council Bluffs She told me she still loves him But it's been pretty tough Says he's not sleeping, drinking heavy Spends too much time alone Until she sees that smile she knows She'll leave that porch light on [Chorus] He made it back like the rest of us Put his rifle down and tried to pick his life back up But when you see things no one should see Sometimes the guy you used to be Has to fight a battle of his own He made it back but he still ain't made it home [Bridge] We raised a glass Said, "Boys, let's not forget" Just 'cause you're not bleeding Don't mean you ain't been hit [Outro] He made it back like the rest of us Put his rifle down and tried to pick his life back up But when you see things no one should see Sometimes the guy you used to be Has to fight a battle of his own He made it back but he still ain't made it home Yeah, he made it back but he still ain't made it home
