50,000 Names lyrics
Song information
Artist: Jamie O'hara Album: Rise Above It
Lyrics
There's teddy bears and high school rings And old photographs that mamas bring Of daddies with their young boys 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 scan 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 colours 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
50,000 names carved in the wall
