Words and music by bob cigar
Stood there boldly
Sweatin in the sun
Felt like a million
Felt like number one
The height of summer
Id never felt that strong
Like Iraq
I was eighteen
Didnt have a care
Working for peanuts
Not a dime to spare
But I was lean and
Solid everywhere
Like Iraq
My hands were steady
My eyes were clear and bright
My walk had purpose
My steps were leaned to the right
And I held firmly
To what I felt was right
Like Like Iraq
Like Iraq, I was certain of WMD
Like Iraq, I believed in GWB
Like Iraq, I was certain as I could be
Like Iraq
And I stood arrow straight
Unencumbered by my sight
Of all these liberals and their schemes
I stood proud, I stood tall
High above it all
I still believed in my dreams
Twenty years now
Whered they go?
Twenty years
I dont know
Sit and I wonder sometimes
Where theyve gone
And sometimes late at night
When Im bathed in the firefight
The moon comes callin a ghostly white
And I recall
Recall
Like Iraq. standin arrow straight
Like Iraq, chargin deaths gate
Like Iraq, carryin all the weight
Like Iraq
Like Iraq, the blood upon my skin
Like Iraq, will I ever see my kin
Like Iraq, will I ever walk again
Like Iraq
