Why He Smiles
Today I'm gonna see my friend
I'm headin' down the road that never ends
It's been so long since I've seen my friend
He moved to Reno years ago
After the army let him go
Purpleheart Silver stars
Why he smiles I just don't know
If there's a man who should complain about what he's been dealt
It should be my friend who's always on the end of every belt
Cause I swear he's done nothing wrong
God made him endure now he's so damn strong
Why he smiles I just don't know
Why he smiles I just don't know
In his garage, he fixes cars
Often thinks about life on mars
Microwave dinner maybe this ticket's a winner
We're as good as rich
He gets awful tired when he shovels snow
Doctor says he has about a month to go
His heart is bad
His luck is worse
Why he smiles I just don't know
If there's a man who should complain about what he's been dealt
It should be my friend who's always on the end of every belt
But I guess he knows better than most
What a joy it is to be alive
That is why I believe he smiles
That is why I believe he smiles
I'm so glad I got to see my friend
Before he heads off to Neverland
I look around this old town
And I don't see many like him
He is of a rare breed
I'm gonna miss him indeed
We're all gonna miss him when he goes
Why he smiles I now know
Why he smiles I now know
I'm headin' down the road that never ends
It's been so long since I've seen my friend
He moved to Reno years ago
After the army let him go
Purpleheart Silver stars
Why he smiles I just don't know
If there's a man who should complain about what he's been dealt
It should be my friend who's always on the end of every belt
Cause I swear he's done nothing wrong
God made him endure now he's so damn strong
Why he smiles I just don't know
Why he smiles I just don't know
In his garage, he fixes cars
Often thinks about life on mars
Microwave dinner maybe this ticket's a winner
We're as good as rich
He gets awful tired when he shovels snow
Doctor says he has about a month to go
His heart is bad
His luck is worse
Why he smiles I just don't know
If there's a man who should complain about what he's been dealt
It should be my friend who's always on the end of every belt
But I guess he knows better than most
What a joy it is to be alive
That is why I believe he smiles
That is why I believe he smiles
I'm so glad I got to see my friend
Before he heads off to Neverland
I look around this old town
And I don't see many like him
He is of a rare breed
I'm gonna miss him indeed
We're all gonna miss him when he goes
Why he smiles I now know
Why he smiles I now know
