Oh brother, man where are you

I am bucklin' from the load

I have lost my eye for color

And my heart can't see the road

Oh sister, come and catch me

'Cause my legs, their prime has past

I am breaking from the sorrow

And my faith is fadin' fast

Mother, father, help me

I'm your flesh and blood and bone

Don't you hear me

Can't you see me

m I doomed to live alone



Without warmth or love or honor

Like a dog out on the street

Am I trash 'cause I can't manage

Must I grovel at your feet



I'm the boy who fought your battles

And I'm the man who won your wars

Is it over?

Have you used me?

I'm no value anymore



I'm your mothers,

Wives, and daughters

I'm your fathers, husbands, sons

I'm the life's blood of this country

I'm the hopeful precious ones



Am I nothing,

Am I no one

Once a fabric,

Now a rag

We treat people like they're nothing

We're not fit to fly,

Fit to fly

No, no, no - no, no, no



We're not fit to fly-

Fit to fly a flag (no, no, no)

Join the Army

See the world

The Marine Corps

Join the Navy

We're not fit to fly -

Fit to fly the flag
