Silent ranks we are
waiting for that call
waiting for that day
they say your solider is coming home
Listening to people cry
because they don't get to see
their boyfriend or their husband, when they are in the USA
All I got to say to them
is I will trade them any day!
You take the worry
you take the pain
of not knowing your husband or boyfriend is ok
because you haven't received a call today
because he can't get to a phone
or does not have a phone card that he can use
to call you
The silent ranks we are
together we have power
to silence those who do not understand
so next time someone complains about not seeing
their husband or boyfriend . . .
remind them you have not received a call from your in days
sometimes weeks or if at all. . .
remind them you have not seen yours in 6 months and that you
have 8 more to go
and that's only if you are lucky. .
Remind them you will trade them any day
to have your solider home today.
For we are the silent ranks.
