Poems by The Old Cowboy
And Brothers We All Are
This is written to all the United States Air Force Security Police
Past, present and future. God Bless you all.
And Brothers We All Are
We all stood guard on some far away hill
With blood of warriors coursing through our veins
Standing within the shadow of death
Maybe you dumped a full clip in fight
Or humped your post without firing a shot
And Brothers We All Are
What we share can not be taken away
A bond so strong none can break
Unlike so many we joined on our own
Not running to Canada or waiting for the draft
We choose our direction and stood it firm
And Brothers We All Are
Now time has worked its magic we have turned old
Tried hurting and worn to the bone
Sick from what we have endured
We now not wanting to be alone
Have found our brothers from the past
And Brothers We All Are

A bond so strong none can break
Unlike so many we joined on our own

We choose our direction and stood it firm
And Brothers We All Are
Now time has worked its magic we have turned old
Tried hurting and worn to the bone
Sick from what we have endured
