Carry me home if I fall in battle
I need to know you won’t leave me behind
Carry me home with my fallen brothers
Who fought and who died by my side

Don’t grieve for me I’m not lost or forgotten
I’m goin home to the ones that I love
Don’t grieve for me I’m proud to be counted
As one who has fought for the country they love

I’m just a man I’m not a hero
I only fought for what I believe
My fear of losing our blessed freedom 
Gives me the strength and the will that I need 

Carry me home if I fall in battle
Cover me with the flag that I love
Bury me with dignity and honor
Next to my brothers in arms
