Standing Strong Since '68

They met on a Friday night, lights dirt flying in the air. Santa Fe Speedway,

summer heat everywhere. He was young, strong, already hearing the call.

She was Lois on paper, but Faye to us all. Then Uncle Sam

came knocking, sent him far away. Vietnam on his shoulder,

she prayed every day. She held down the fort, never once backed

down. Waited on a promise till he came back home. Through letters and

long nights. Faith stronger than fear. She believed in that man,

and he made it back here. Since '68 they've been writing the song.
