Where is the healthcare
For vets at Walter Reed
Congress, support the troops!
Don’t make them jump through hoops
To get the benefits
That they so sorely need
Don’t put them on the street
And shut the door.
Some War on Terror vets
May have PTSD
Severe brain injuries
And some are amputees
Don’t send them to Iraq
Or to Afghanistan
Keep them all safe at home
Away from war
They’re facing homelessness
Divorce and suicide
Mis’ry is all around
That’s what our vets have found
Let’s tell Obama
To stop this deadly game
It’s time we all stand up
To shout NO MORE
