Veterans Day

Veterans Day
The government takes a holiday
The banks close and
America's Greatest Heroes
March proudly down the street
They who put their lives on the line
For the country they love
Carrying our beloved Stars And Stripes
Through the city and followed by a few
Police cars and beauty queens
In a parade that ends all too fast
