We Thank You all Our Veterans





















WE THANK YOU ...ALL OUR VETERANS
A tribute to all our military veterans! 

lyrics....Phil Morrison music...Keith Williams
This performance with the University of North Florida Jazz band
is the first time this song was performed ...either with the band or in public.


WE THANK YOU ALL OUR VETERANS - who served to keep us free
Around the world you sacrificed - defending liberty
Your uniforms were worn with pride - khaki, blue or white
Representing the USA - believing in what's right

WE THANK YOU ALL OUR VETERANS - it's time to show we care
In two world wars, Korea - Viet Nam, the Gulf..you were there
We can't forget your courage - Iraq...Afghanistan
Protection from our enemies - defense for Uncle Sam

America is proud of you - We know what you went through
Men & women in uniform Serving the red, white & blue

WE THANK YOU ALL OUR VETERANS - from this democracy
You defended freedom - from the threat of tyranny
Some of you are gone now- to a resting place in heaven
But..your spirit's still alive - as we remember 9/11
