Song Description
I wrote the song after hearing about so many soliders are being killed in Iraq since the end of the war. I wanted to write a song about what it feels like to be coming home after this war and the friends that are left behind on the front lines.

Lyrics
Verse 1
Slingin' my rifle over my back
Tomorrow morning I'll be leaving Iraq
My duty is over got my purple heart
St Louie here I come makin' a brand new start
All my friends are there waitin for me
My pretty baby I can't wait to see
I'll take a jet plane and I'm on my way
I'm flyin' back to the U.S.A
All my buddies that I'm leaving behind
Will always be in my heart and on mind
My band of brothers helped to see me through
And when I get home I'll be praying and waiting for you
Chorus
I'm Comin I'm Comin Home to you
I can't believe that it's true
I'm Comin I'm Comin Home to You
that's what I'm gonna do
I'm Comin I'm Comin home
Verse 2
First thing I do when I get home
Dance with my baby all night long
I'll drive my chevy down route 66
Hit the highway harder then ton of bricks
Go to a ballgame and have tall cold beer
Can't wait to get myself out of here
My home sweet home she's callin' me
Back to the land of the brave and the home of the free
All my buddies that I'm leaving behind
Will always be in my heart and on mind
My band of brothers helped to see me through
And when I get home I'll be praying and waiting for you
Chorus
I'm Comin I'm Comin Home to you
I can't believe that it's true
I'm Comin I'm Comin Home to You
that's what I'm gonna do
I'm Comin' on my way Back To the U.S.A.
that's where I'm gonna stay
I'm Comin I'm Comin home
guitar solo
Sha na na na na na na na
Sha na na na na na na na
Chorus
I'm Comin I'm Comin Home to you
I can't believe that it's true
I'm Comin I'm Comin Home to You
that's what I'm gonna do
I'm Comin' on my way Back To the U.S.A.
that's where I'm gonna stay
I'm Comin I'm Comin home
Sha na na na na na na na
Sha na na na na na na na
