Don't mean nothin'
If you forget our veterans
Just remember
You're free today because of them
Don't mean nothin'
If you forget our veterans
Just remember
They went--so you didn't have to
Don't mean nothin'
If you forget our veterans
Just remember
It could be YOUR name up on the Wall
Don't mean nothin'
If you forget our veterans
Just remember
What price our veterans paid
Don't mean nothin'
If you forget our veterans
Just remember
My daddy/uncles/brother/I are veterans
Don't mean nothin'
If you forget our veterans
Just remember
We don't ask for nothin' but thanks
