Verse 1: The first thing I did when the plane finally landed was kiss the ground The next thing I did was go find my friends Down at the old hangout We drank some beer & talked alot about old times But whenthe booze finally hit Billy Joe Grimes he said I dont know what it is But you seem different to me Chorus: In said I just came back from a place where they hated me And everything I stand for A land where our brothers Are dying for others Who dont even care anymore If I'm not exactly the same god old boy That you ran around with before I just came back from a war The very next morning I took a walk through the the neighborhood I thought it's been so long since I been a place Where everything was good People laughing & children were playing As I watched them I found myself praying Lord, keep em safe here at home In the land of the free Chorus: Cause I just came back from a place where they hated me And everything I stand for A land where our brothers Are dying for others Who dont even care anymore If I'm not that same little freckled-face boy That grew up in that house next door I hope youi cherish this sweet way of life And I hope you know that it comes with a price Chorus: In said I just came back from a place where they hated me And everything I stand for A land where our brothers Are dying for others Who dont even care anymore If I'm not exactly the same god old boy That you ran around with before I just came back from a war I just came back from a war You dont know me You dont know me You dont know me Cause I just came back from a war
