Head Count |
| Some may or may not know |
| What it is I’m talking about |
| Every night my friends |
| No matter how many times I do it |
| It seems to always come out still the same |
| As hard as I may try |
| It’s still missing those same names |
| Now for those who don’t know |
| Just what it is I’m talking about |
| Every time we got into any firefights |
| Just as soon they were all done |
| We knew things were scarred |
| We started tending to the wounded |
| We would do what was called |
| Head Count |
| Just to see who we had lost |
| Making sure that all was accounted for |
| Knowing no one was gone |
| That we needed to be looking for |
| We all came in together |
| We all go back together |
| That was just how things were |
| All heads accounted for |
| Only now I do them in my nights |
| Remembering their faces once more |
| Yes Sir all accounted for |
