50,000 Names

In the style of

Jamie O'Hara

Lyrics

there's teddy bears
and high school rings
and old photographs
that mamas bring
of daddys with their
young boy playin' ball

there's combat boots
he used to wear
when he was sent
over there
and there's
50,000 names
carved in the wall

there's cigarettes
and cans of beer
and notes that say
i miss you dear
and children
who don't say
anything at all

there's purple hearts
and packs of gum
fatherless
daughters and
fatherless sons

and there's
50,000 names
carved in the wall

they come from all
across this land
in pick-up trucks
and mini-vans
searchin' for a boy
from long ago

they skim the wall
and find his name
the teardrops fall
like pourin' rain
then silently they
leave a gift and go

there's
stars of david and
rosary beads and
crucifixion figurines
and flowers
of all colors
large and small

there's a
boy scout badge
and a merit pin
little american flags
wavin' in the wind

and there's
50,000 names
carved in the wall
there's 50,000 names
carved in the wall
