lyrics
Honor Them (The Oorah Song)
Johnny’s comin’ home
Back from over there
Where he left his soul
His brother in a hole
After welcome home
After the last shot is fired
Time for him to dwell
In a living hell
Urge is to go back
To get some more
Finger on the trigger
All he’s known is the fight
Honor them
Honor them
All the soldiers
Honor them
Honor them
Honor them
Honor them
Honor them
All the grunts
Honor them
Honor them
Honor them
Good to have you back
Put down that shiny gun
Join the daily grind
Try not to lose your mind
A place to hole away
At the great VA
Talkin to a shrink
Aint everything just pink?
Dreams reverberate
Thoughts are dark
Memories of Mick
Cut to the quick
Honor them
Honor them
All the soldiers
Honor them
Honor them
Honor them
Johnny’s comin’ home
Back from over there
Where he left his soul
His brother in a hole
