Lyrics:
My Brother Bo 9/8/17
A skinny red headed kid from South Carolina
Packed dip in his lip and cherries in his moonshine
He grew up quick on our second trip to Iraq
He was funny as hell when the day was done
Dead serious when he got behind that machine gun
We were just like brothers always had each other’s back
Everyday I'd tell him, “don't forget, son don't you dare get hit
When you draw fire, run fast, you never know which day’s your last
Keep your powder dry and that ginger (redneck) fool head low
Stay strong, stay true, don't forget you're infantry blue
He was one of the bravest boys I'll ever (you'll never) know
My brother Bo
When we got back home we were best of friends
Wasn't long before we both reupped again
I was reassigned, and Bo was Afghanistan bound
He was movin’ up, puttin’ rank on his sleeve
We were gonna get together on his next leave
Next time I saw Bo was when we laid him in the ground
With three months left he was KIA
I bet the last thing they heard him say was
Repeat Chorus
Oh I miss him so
Repeat Chorus
