 Send "Remember Me" Ringtone to your Cell 

 Oh, I am the unknown soldier who died in world war
two.
I didn’t want to fight, it was the only thing to
do.
I was the victim of a world that went insane--
Will you show me that I didn’t die in vain.

Remember me, when the crosses are a burnin’,
Remember me, when the racists come around.
Remember me, when the tides of peace are
turnin’,
Remember me and please don’t let me down.

On the south pacific islands and the iwo jima
sands
We raised the flag of freedom over many distant
lands
And every time I killed a man my own heart felt
the pain--
Will you show me that I didn’t die in vain.

Remember me, when the crosses are a burnin’,
Remember me, when the racists come around.
Remember me, when the tides of peace are
turnin’,
Remember me and please don’t let me down.

And I carried my old rifle to the european shore
And every friend that died made me die a little
more.
Have pity on the man who put a bullet through my
brain
And show me that I didn’t die in vain.

Remember me, when the crosses are a burnin’,
Remember me, when the racists come around.
Remember me, when the tides of peace are
turnin’,
Remember me and please don’t let me down.

When the fascists started marching many millions
had to pay;
We saw them rise to power but we looked the other
way.
It happened once before and it can happen once
again--
Will you show me that I didn’t die in vain.

Remember me, when the crosses are a burnin’,
Remember me, when the racists come around.
Remember me, when the tides of peace are
turnin’,
Remember me and please don’t let me down.
