Lyrics

They came from small towns and the great big cities
They all knew the risk that was waiting
And the terrible maybes
They gave their best they promised to Obey and Serve
They gave their Heart and Honor, they never lost their nerve


All gave some, some gave All
But they never failed to answer the call
They do and died
No one ever knew their name

And they're the Keepers of
The Keepers of
The Keepers of the Flame
The Keepers of
The Keepers of
The Keepers of the Flame

Every battle was a fight for life
The constant hail of bullets made them think of their kids and wives
No one told them of the horrors that they would see
That war is not a game, thank God it wasn't me

All gave some, some gave All
But they never failed to heed the call
They do and died
No one ever knew their name

And they're the Keepers of
The Keepers of
The Keepers of the Flame
The Keepers of
The Keepers of
The Keepers of the Flame

The flame of freedom burns in a soldier' eyes
They put their dreams on hold, they don't dare cry
They stand and fought and died through great pain
These unsung heroes who didn't complain

All gave some, some gave All
But they never failed to heed the call
They do and died
No one ever knew their name
But they're the Keepers of
The Keepers of
The Keepers of the Flame
The Keepers of
The Keepers of
The Keepers of the Flame
