MY LONGEST DAY Do not call me hero, When you see the medals that I wear, Medals maketh not the hero, They just prove that I was there. _______________________________ Do not call me hero, Now that I am old and grey, I left a lad, returned a man, They stole my youth that day. _______________________________ Do not call me hero, When we ran the wall of hail, The blood, the fears, the cries, the tears We left them where they fell. ________________________________ Do not call me hero, Each night I stop and pray, For all the friends I knew and lost, I survived my longest day. _________________________________ Do not call me hero, In the years that pass, For all the real true heroes, Have crosses, lined up on the grass.
