A Fort Carson's Soldier's Thoughts
Just East of the Rocky Mountains
Fort Carson is the spot;
Where we're doomed to serve out time
In the land that God forgot.
Down with the snakes and buzzards
Down where a man gets blue,
Right in the middle of nowhere
An 1700 miles from you.
We sweat, freeze and shiver
Its more than we can stand;
they treat us like convicts
But call it defense of our land.
We're soldiers of the 5th Inf. Div.
Earning our meaningless pay,
Guarding people by the millions,
For a buck and a half a day.
Living with our memories
Wanting to see our gals;
Hoping while we are away
They haven't married our pals.
Few people know we are living,
Few people give a damn;
Although we are not forgotten at home
We still belong to Uncle Sam.
The time we spend in the Army
Is a time we have missed;
Boy we hope that don't draft you
And for God's sake, don't enlist.
And when we go to heaven
Saint Peter he will yell;
Lord these men are Red Devils
They have served their time in hell!
