for WHERE HE CALLS HOME was done by
Mr Jack Keel a Vietnam Era Veteran Also ...Jack Keel <[email protected]>
lyrics
"Where He (They) Calls Home"
11/9/11
Verse 1 and 2
The city sidewalks is where he calls home
Yet, to walk in his footsteps, he walks so alone
Like so many others, forgotten to the streets
Now his new home is a cardboard box, that’s where this veteran sleeps.
The city sidewalks is now his new floor
A far cry from the home he knew, before that damn war
Such a brave-brave veteran and highly decorated at that
Who was willing to serve both God and Country, at the drop of a hat.
Chorus
***Life on the Streets, is where he (they) calls home
What a shame and what a sin,
Has this country lost its’ Soul
Life on the streets, is where he (they) calls home
Time to make things right again
And let the truth be told
Verse 3 and 4
No Heat, No lights, other than the neon signs
As he flashes back to the war, in his troubled mind
Thinking of his buddies who fought and died, so we at home are free
To hug our precious children and blessed families
Now Freedom is never free, that’s why they fight in foreign lands
Then they come home to this travesty and they try to understand
Why they have no jobs, they have no homes and are stripped of their Dignity
Is this how we show our gratitude, to the ones who keep us free.
Chorus
***Life on the Streets, is where he (they) calls home
What a shame and what a sin,
Has this country lost its’ Soul
Life on the streets, is where he (they) calls home
Time to make things right again
And let the truth be told
Bridge
The Flag is in the distance, Old Glory yet she waves
It’s such a constant reminder, to the service that he (they) gave
He’s such a lonely man, who walks the streets and calls the streets his (their) home
Thinking of his buddies who gave their lives, lucky they hadn't come home.
Verse 5 and 6
He was talking to his Guardian Angel, on a cold and rainy night
And she too had tears in her eyes, feeling his pain, cursing his plight
As he pulls out a Holy Bible, half stained in blood red.
He said, "This belonged to my buddy in Nam, who sadly came back dead."
He said, "I’m not an emotional man and I seldom ever cry"
"But I cried like a baby and it wounded my soul, when I saw my buddies die."
Now I’m reminded of their valor and courage, in such God forsaken places
You know, whenever I see an Eagle in the sky, it is then…
I remember their faces.
Chorus
***Life on the Streets, is where he (they) calls home
What a shame and what a sin,
Has this country lost its’ Soul
Life on the streets, is where he (they) calls home
Time to make things right again
And let the truth be told.

WE WANT TO GIVE A SPECIAL THANKS
TO ALL OUR SUPPORTERS AND OUR LOYAL FANS
FROM AROUND THE GLOBE
MR WADE L. SMITH PRES.CEO.OWNER
RISING STAR RECORDS NASHVILLE , TN . AND SCHERERVILLE, IN.
THIS IS FOR ALL WHOM EVER SERVED THIS COUNTRY
IN THE UNITED STATES MILITARY
Dear USO Supporter --
I've been fortunate enough to visit our troops overseas and see firsthand what it's like for them to spend this special time thousands of miles from the people they love most. I'll never forget the selfless heroes I met. That's why I feel so strongly about the USO's Christmas Convoy.
With your help today preparing the way, this very special convoy -- loaded up with everything the troops need for a much-deserved respite from the rigors of war -- will reach our troops serving in remote and hard-to-reach forward operating bases in Afghanistan in time for the holidays.
It's part of a larger USO effort to give our troops everything they need this holiday season. The logistics of such an undertaking aren't easy. It takes time to put together. And to get the job done, we need to raise $100,000 by October 20th.
Will you join me in making sure the USO has the resources to reach as many troops as possible this holiday season?
http://risingstarrecords.weebly.com
The Christmas Convoy is especially close to my heart because it reaches troops in some of the most isolated front line outposts, where the small comforts of home are especially hard to come by.
It's the centerpiece of our ambitious effort to bring a touch of holiday happiness to more troops than ever. And everything we do -- from care packages, to free phone calls home, to special holiday meals -- requires vigorous support from folks back home like you and me.
So I'm hoping the thousands of troops who'll spend the holidays on the frontlines dreaming of home and family can count on your loyalty the way you count on theirs.
Make a gift to help make the 2012 Holiday Season a special one for our troops serving in Afghanistan and around the world.
Some October thoughtfulness from you can pave the way for wonderful holiday moments for our troops. Please join me in making this happen.
Happy (Early) Holidays,
Joan Jett

singer/musician at his Nashville Studio

Subject: song by Smith/Woody Time toTime
She didn't come home last night as I stared at the wall
Hoping she'd think enough of me enough to of called
Words hadn't been spoken it's been nearly a year
I just wish I could get through to her
Maybe she'd pf seen my tears.
It's been a lonly life and I truly miss her touch
It was a happier time when I felt her love
How do I tell her I could of possibly been wrong
Its in my arms still I know where she belongs.
I didn't see your tears clouded by my own
Reliving all the seeds you've sown
We haven't spoken a word in nearly a year
I sit alone in solitude washing away my tears .
Some said I married angel but tat was long ago
I see it is in disbelief that shes not here at home.
He's a ghost in my past he lives in my head
Every last word he said from first to last
How do I forget you?
How can I move on?
When past feelings and these memories linger on?
I can go back but why he never cared if I said goodbye.
That moment I left out that door was to be my last
The longer they cling the more they sting
like hornet after a feild of blossoms
in a feild of meadows in the spring.
Last goodbyes and heartaches still feeling the pain
In knowing it's over and I'll never see her again
Sometimes I see him with her she never knew
How I truly felt about you
How do I not look back
How do I hold my head up high
When she said I never saw a tear that she cried.
My heart is heavy
My mind shattered and torn
He was just an image now
To be of my first born
I could risk it all and tell him
I still fall to pieces from the sound of his name
Some times I feel your memory
Is driving me insane.
If I was to turn around just where would you be?
Cause someone would have to go
So it may as well be me
My heart is heavy it's weakened my soul
In what used to be a love
Like ours that burned so out of control
Does she know where you stand?
Does she know where her feet will land?
I gave you the best of me in all those years
You didn't see what you were doing to me
Behind those hidden tears
I offered you my heart
You used it as a stepping stone
Now you want to point the finger
It was my fault now that you're all alone.
I was lost and couldn't find my way
I forgave you as I bid you good day
I packed my suitcase and headed to LA
I needed those stepping stones
To get me through
The muddy deep waters I had consumed over you.
I thought it was high time I left you alone
While I still had part of my mind before it was gone
It's not to say
I don't think of you now
I do think of you when
From time to time
From time to time
Now and again.

I CAN REMEMBER THAT DAY JUST LIKE IT WAS YESTERDAY
IT WAS ON THANKGIVING AFTERNOON
WHEN THE ARMY RECRUITER CAME KNOCKING UPON MY DOOR,
SAYNG SOLDIER WE MUST BE LEAVING SOON
HERE I WAS JUST A YOUNG BOY FRESH OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL
GETTING READY TO BECOME A MAN
AS I WAS GETTING READY TO GO INTO THE ARMY THAT DAY
TO FIGHT IN A WAR IN GOD FOR SAKEN LAND
THAT THEY CALLED VIETNAM
VERSE 2
EMOTIONS RAN THROUGH ME WHILE I WAS OVER THERE
SOMETIMES CUTTING THROUGH ME LIKE A KNIFE
THINKING ABOUT MY HOME TOWN FRIENDS, MY FAMILY,
MY CHILDREN AND MY LOVING WIFE
I KNEW WHAT I HAD TO GO AND DO
FOR GOD ,COUNTRY AND THE RED WHITE AND BLUE
STAYING TRUE TO MY DECISSION I LIVE BY
TO PROTECT THE LIKES OF THOSE LIKE YOU
CHORUS
SOME CALL US A DEFENDER OF FREEDOM
SOME CALL US ALL HEROES
WE JUST SERVED OUR COUNTRY WITH PRIDE
IN WHEREVER WE WERE TOLD TO GO
THE YEARS HAVE PASSED NOW SINCE THEN FOR US ALL
WE'RE NO LONGER YOUNG AND HAVE TURNED GREY AND OLD
BUT IF YOU EVER WANT TO KNOW ABOUT YOUR FREEDOM
LISTEN TO THE STORIES OF US THAT ARE TOLD
VERSE 3
SOME OF THIS MAY BE UPSETTING TO YOU
WHILE SOME MAY JUST OPEN UP YOUR EYES
IT WAS THROUGH OUR SACRIFICE ON FOREIGN SOIL
WE NEVER THOUGHT OF WHAT WAS BEHIND US AT HOME MUCH
JUST WHAT WAS ON THE ENEMY LINES
WE FOUGHT FOR THIS COUNTRY
DODGING THE BULLETS FLYING OVER OUR HEADS
THE MORTAR ROUNDS AND LAND MINES
THINKING OF THE FRIENDS BACK AT HOME,
OUR FAMILIES ,OUR CHILDREN AND OUR WIVES

A moving song sung by Victoria Williams, with a moving video tribute. 3."Sanctuary"An original Rock song with images from the attack on September 11th. 4."Little Did She Know..."A Tribute for the Heroes of Flight 93 - If you would like more information on the song please visit the artists (Kristy Jackson) website at www.littledidsheknow.com. I do endorse visiting Kristy Jackson's website, however Kristy nor I endorse the website (link4u.com) listed at the beginning and the end of the tribute I have posted here. 5.Enya & Greenwood 9/11 TributeThe following 9/11 Tribute is more graphic as it includes some WTC jumper photos. This Tribute features 2 songs (Enya and Lee Greenwood) as the background music for the story telling imagery. This Tribute includes images of some WTC suicide jumpers, which can be disturbing for some. It includes images from WTC, the Pentagon and many memorial vigils after 9/11. 6.Enya 9/11 TributeThe following 9/11 Tribute uses the song by Enya "Only Time" as the background for its presentation. This tribute is longer than the previous Enya Tribute, and follows timelines from the attack with many victims photos from the day of the attack. This video tribute also includes many images from the aftermath of the attack. This Tribute does include some images of WTC jumpers, which can be disturbing for some. This 9/11 Tribute was created and produced by a New Yorker. 7.Sacred Heart MemorialA Religious / Christian themed Tribute to 9/11 and The Tragedy of September 11th 2001I've tried to keep religion and religious beliefs out of much of the content on this tribute page, however when I received the following link I felt it should be shared. This tribute has a 9/11 theme to it, however it's main theme is more religious in its message. I believe it is still a powerful message for many to enjoy.
Sadly, once again, as I have seen too often, the website that offered a moving 9-11 tribute for many years, recently went offline - I am now posting my own saved copy of the Sacred Heart Memorial 9-11 Tribute on my tribute page.
Religious beliefs have never been an issue with me. This page and the tributes I have featured have always been about the victims, the heroes, the families and many others that lived through and experienced this horrible day and its aftermath.
When I first posted this tribute - I offered an opportunity for all visitors to vote if this tribute was appropriate for this 9-11 tribute page, of the first 1,000 votes I received in the first 2 weeks, I received only 10 that thought this tribute was inappropriate. With that type of initial response, I have suspended the voting and will keep this tribute on my page.
Also, after considering the message of this tribute, I would like to know if anyone has found or can offer me an Islamic / Muslim faith based Tribute or Memorial that has a similar message for the innocent victims of September 11th which did include innocent Muslims and many others of different faiths.
Specifically, if there is an Islamic / Muslim based September 11th Tribute that has a message of Remembrance, LOVE and Compassion, and not one of Jihad and DEATH to Infidels or the "West"... let me know and I'll gladly add it right next to this Christian based tribute on my 9/11 tribute page.
9/25/12 UPDATE - It's been over 6 1/2 YEARS (over 3.5 MILLION VISITORS to this page during that time)since I asked for a Muslim / Islamic faith based September 11th Tribute or Memorial to post on this site, as I wanted to offer a "Fair and Balanced" tribute site. I have yet to see or be offered a single Islamic faith based tribute or memorial... WHY??? - The "Religion of Peace" is VERY silent... WHY????
8.Sacred Heart - Version 2This is a remake utilizing the audio from the Sacred Heart Memorial above - The original background music and voiceover is remixed with images of the day and images from the days following. For those that appreciate the redemptive message of the Sacred Heart Memorial but want to view a tribute that reminds us all of the unforgettable images of the day and many images from after the attack. This moving tribute does show one WTC jumper image at the beginning and then utilizes many other very moving images from 9/11 and photos of families, friends and memorials from the days after 9/11. 9."Broken Hearts"A 7th Anniversary Tribute. I received this video on 9/10/08, from Peter Robertson in Canada. He also created the very moving Windows Media tribute posted below "Through Their Eyes" which was sent to me a year earlier as his first 9/11 Tribute offering. This very moving 9/11 Tribute is a MUST WATCH ... I have watched this video many, many times and I've shed a tear each and every time - Thank you Peter for creating such a moving testimonial and memorial to September 11th.
This converted Flash video is still a rather large file, and bandwidth delivery may be a problem. Please be patient if there is a slight delay to view this tribute. It is well worth the wait.
10."I Wish For Peace"A September 11th Tribute video with Michele Tumes "I Wish For Peace" as the background song. A beautiful song and a very moving tribute. It's unfortunate that the mere wish for peace is not enough to protect us from those that are determined to destroy our nation and to end many of our lives to further their own selfish agendas. 11."Remember Us"Added September 2009 - I received an email from Diane Riegal with a link to her original 9/11 tribute song and video memorial posted on her YouTube page. Diane's original song is beautiful and the images in the video are stirring. Diane wrote this song after visiting Ground Zero 6 days after 9/11. A beautifully done September 11th Memorial and Tribute song and video, A MUST WATCH! - Thank you Diane! 12."We Will Remember You"Added September 2010 - I received an email from Robyn Adams, who wrote and sang the original "We Will Remember You" song that has been posted on this site for the last few years. She provided a link to her new YouTube video presentation of this song. This song is a tribute to "First Responders"... Fire, EMT, Police, Law Enforcement... Thank you Robyn, your song has always been a great tribute - The video really brings the message alive! 13."9-11-01 We Will Remember"Added JUNE 2011 - This Tribute is VERY UNIQUE and WELL DONE - I received the YouTube link by the creator and immediately posted it to this page. Very moving images, narrative and music. All images are from WTC Ground Zero after the attack. This tribute is well done and I recommend viewing this 9/11 10th Anniversary Commemorative and Tribute video. Thanks to Nicholas Paul Franko! 14."Phone Call" - Derik Nelson"Added September 10th 2011 - I stumbled upon this 9/11 10th Anniversary Tribute Video on YouTube while viewing other 9/11 Tributes. I thought the song and it's message was very moving. No images or pictures from 9/11, just the songwriter Derik Nelson performing his very moving original song. I personally found his song and performance very compelling. 15."The Eleventh After: Hope Rises"NEW - Added September 10th 2012 - A VERY MOVING 9/11 11th Anniversary Video sent to me by Patti Keiper. This video tribute shows the WTC rebuild with stirring images from the current 9/11 Memorial and the new One World Trade. All set to a moving audio track with a poem that focuses on looking to healing and hope for the future. WELL DONE and Worth Watching! . Thanks Patti for sharing your healing 9/11 tribute with us. Hope Rises!

WINDOWS MEDIA VIDEOS - 9/11 WINDOWS MEDIA TRIBUTE VIDEOS -1.WHITNEY HOUSTON'S
"STAR SPANGLED BANNER"This is not a 9/11 Tribute as it was performed at the Super Bowl XXV in Tampa during the time of Operation Desert Storm / Desert Shield 1990-1991 - I believe it is still a very stirring performance worthy of watching and enjoying. 2.JEFF BUCKLEY'S
"HALLELUJAH"I created this Windows Media video file that features Jeff Buckley's "Hallelujah" as the background audio. Most of the images deal with rescuers, people, emotions and the aftermath of the attack and much less with the actual attack. This is a tribute to 1st Responders, Families of Victims and the best of humanity. 3.HIGHER FAITH
"ANGELS IN HEAVEN"Another Windows Media video file that features a stirring more religious based song ( Higher Faith - "Angels in Heaven" ) as background. This 9/11 Tribute is based on less of the attack and more about the victims, the survivors, the rescuers, family members and aftermath of 9/11 emotions. 4."FREEDOM FELL"The following Windows Media Media Video was submitted to me by Hank "The Kat in the Hat" Crowder of KHCA ANGEL 95 FM in Manhattan Kansas - The Original Song was written by Jay Feigal. Credits to Jay Feigal - Writer and Guitar / Hank Crowder - Lead Guitar, Video Production and Producer. Recorded and Produced at KHCA Angel 95 FM Manhattan Kansas (The Little Apple) / Email: [email protected] 5."THROUGH THEIR EYES"INTERNET PREMIERE on 3/11/06 - THIS IS A MUST WATCH - This presentation has never before been released on the internet - Created and Produced by Peter Robertson in Toronto Canada, he created this tribute for himself, his family and friends to deal with the pain of 9/11 (Peter lost a friend and colleague at the WTC).Peter offered this 9/11 Video Tribute to me after 4 plus years of keeping it private for himself & family. He explained to me that he felt it was time to share it with others. This video includes some "raw" audio at the beginning that may not be suitable for children. Please send Peter a note and let him know how you felt about his tribute at[email protected].
I, for one, am so very glad that Peter decided to share his moving Tribute with us... Thank you, Peter!

7."AFTER 9/11"I found a 9/11 Tribute website in 2006... IT FEATURED A VERY MOVING VIDEO TRIBUTE CLIP... The site featured a 5 minute preview clip of a reportedly longer "After 9/11" video... The following text was taken from their "After 9/11" Tribute & Memorial website.
"A year after the event, some of us living in Hoboken worked on a modest documentary commemorating 9/11. It was shown once for a small local audience. We've placed five minutes of it online here, as we think there might be a wider audience for this material.
THE FIVE-MINUTE FILM CLIP SHOWN is a compilation of some of the “missing” posters that covered lower Manhattan in the hours, days and weeks after the 9/11 WTC attacks. It is set to music by Cecilia, the band (now renamed The Veltz Family). This music was sent by the musicians to one of the NYC firehouses that had lost firefighters to the attacks, in the form of an unmarked, anonymous CD."
OK, back to me now - The website that originally presented this clip went offline in early '08 - I am presenting my saved copy of that shortened "After 9/11" tribute and memorial here. I wish I had the reported entire video to share, If anyone can provide it to me, I will post for all - The images move quickly and the text is a bit small, please watch closely. The message and the images are unforgettable. The images... The song... and the MESSAGE of this Memorial & Tribute Touches the Heart & Soul... THANK YOU and MUCH RESPECT TO WHOMEVER and ALL that CREATED THIS MOVING TRIBUTE!

* "Have You Forgotten" was written by country singer Darryl Worley after 9-11 and a trip overseas in 2002 to entertain our troops in Afghanistan, Kuwait and Uzbekistan. He's also since entertained our troops in Iraq. I put the song together with the 9-1-1 tapes from NYC on September 11, 2001
