The day I shipped out
They numbered a hundred
Upon my return
Were a thousand or so
From the Gulf and from the Midwest
I bet they keep coming
Add one more name from Ohio
Carry me home down The Highway of Heroes
People above with their flags flying low
Carry me softly, down The Highway of Heroes
By the Dawn's Early Light
There was never more
I served with distinction
No visions of glory
I served without question
Or personal gain
Seek no justification
Its not part of my story
And it offers no comfort
To the ones who remain
Just carry me home down The Highway of Heroes
People above with their flags flying low
Carry me softly, down The Highway of Heroes
By the Dawn's Early Light
There was never more
They numbered a hundred
Upon my return
Were a thousand or so
From the Gulf and from the Midwest
I bet they keep coming
Add one more name from Ohio
Carry me home down The Highway of Heroes
People above with their flags flying low
Carry me softly, down The Highway of Heroes
By the Dawn's Early Light
There was never more
I served with distinction
No visions of glory
I served without question
Or personal gain
Seek no justification
Its not part of my story
And it offers no comfort
To the ones who remain
Just carry me home down The Highway of Heroes
People above with their flags flying low
Carry me softly, down The Highway of Heroes
By the Dawn's Early Light
There was never more
