Today, thank a veteran Open your heart, let them in
Tell them how much you appreciate All their sacrifice, it's not too late
To let them know how much they mean All the horror they have seen
Will never be lost in their minds Take a few minutes' time
To make them feel that you care With some kind words that you share
Or buy them a snack or drink Please don't ever think
Veterans or Memorial Day Is the only time to say
Thank you for what you have done Every day when you find someone
In uniform, dog tags, or hat Reach deep down and express that
You would not be here or free If they were runned who they're meant to be
