There's Teddy bears And high school rings And old photographs that Mama's bring Of Daddy's with their young boys playin' ball There's combat boots He used to wear When he was sent over there And there's 50,000 names carved in the wall There's cigarettes And cans of beer And notes that say "I miss you dear" And children who don't say anything at all There's purple hearts And packs of gum Fatherless daughters and fatherless sons There's 50,000 names carved in the wall They come from all across this land In pickup trucks and minivans Searchin' for a boy from long ago They scan the wall and find his name Tear drops fall like pourin' rain Then silently they leave a gift and go There's stars of David SongtexteAnd rosary beads And crucifixion figurines And flowers of all kinds Large and small There's a boy scout badge And a merit pin Little American flags wavin' in the wind There's 50,000 names carved in the wall There's 50,000 names carved in the wall Aus Songtexte Mania
