Doug Stone - P.O.W. 369 Lyrics

I was flyin' down the highway
Weavin' in and out of traffic
I was racin' time
An old man pulled out in front of me
And I went crazy as can be
I lost my mind

I blew my horn
Till I got close enough to see
What was on his car tag
Sure convicted me

P.O.W. 369, I should salute you
From this heart of mine
Thank you for placing your life
On the line for me, I'm free!

I pray that the rest of your journey
Is be a peaceful one
And may you take your own sweet time
Mr. P.O.W. 369

The things we take for granted
In this life we lead are tragic
We should be ashamed
He left his home and family
Cast his fate across the sea
Would we do the same?

Well, I sure bet he's got some
Stories he could tell
Ain't that many ever
Made it back from hell

P.O.W. 369, I should salute you
From this heart of mine
Thank you for laying your life
On the line for me, I'm free!

I pray that the rest of your journey
Is be a peaceful one
And may you take your own sweet time
Mr. P.O.W. 369

Let me thank you
One more time
Mr. P.O.W. 369
