Lyrics for Joining The Army

Told you I was joining the army, had no excuse Seemed the right thing to do And you called me a fool Said I'd come back mean and cruel I said I just wanted to make my grandfather proud Even though he's not around Been gone since, I was thirteen I'm still worried what he'd think about me Playing this guitar just ain't gonna cut it, for long I mean singing these songs don't compare to what he did over there Need to prove I can carry my share Take on my own load and bear To me it all seems fair.
