Orono Weekly Times - 3 " "l::h' l ' .,/! iff ,- Places I've done time Heroes We see our veterans walking And their steps are getting slow But these men and women heroes Are the best we'll ever know You see them selling poppies In the wind and rain and snow They're standing straight and splendid Like they did so long ago They don't talk about the war years The sad times and the bad They just fought for our future It's the best we've ever had. All you veteran men and women We can't thank you half enough You took the lead, and for good reason When the going was mighty tough. Fly our flag and wave it often Cheer our veterans long and loud Treat these heroes with respect And wear your poppy proud.
