The Last Fallen Hero - The Charlie Daniels Band

Oh, the cowards came by morning and attacked without a warning

Leaving flames and death and chaos in our streets

In the middle of this fiery hell brave heroes fell

In the skies of Pennsylvania on a plane bound for destruction

With the devil and his angels at the wheel

They never reached their target on the ground

Brave heroes brought it down

This is a righteous cause so without doubt or pause

I will do what my country asks of me Make any sacrifice

We’ll pay whatever price

So the children of tomorrow can be free

Lead on red, white and blue

And we will follow you until we win the final victory

God help us do our best we will not slack or rest

Till the last fallen hero rests in peace

Now the winds of war are blowing and there’s no way of knowing

Where this bloody path we’re traveling will lead

We must follow till the end

Or face it all again

And make no mistake about it, write it, preach it, talk it, shout it Across the mountains and the deserts and the seas

The blood of innocence and shame

Will not be shed in vain

God help us do our best we will not slack nor rest

Till the last fallen hero rests in peace
