    Default Troop type songs....war

    With all the bases in the area and the times, i was thinking of a support the troops type song. Not too pro war and yet supportive of the men (&women). Any ideas?
    I'm thinking of Bowie's Captive because I simply love him and the song is pretty hot - "make your dress all wet and send it to me" (love that line) but most of the others in my collection are more bleeding heart
    thanks for the help!

    "Riding With Private Malone" - David Ball
    "Courtesy Of The Red White & Blue" - Toby Keith
    "Run Through The Jungle" - CCR
    "Rooster" - Alice In Chains
    "Born In The USA" - Bruce Springsteen
    "God Bless The USA" - Lee Greenwood
    "Get Here If You Can" - Oleta Adams
    "Paint It Black" - Rolling Stones
    "Star Spangled Banner" - Jimi Hendrix
    "Bombs Over Baghdad" - ????
    "Something To Believe In" - Poison

    Maybe sprinkle in a few choice cuts from the "Apocalypse Now" Soundtrack...

    I can think of a few others given enough time. Personally, I would choose "This Is God" by Phil Vassar, but it really runs the risk of pissing off a few people.

    mcCain - you are a true goddess !
    I may just run that risk. Fortunate son and this is god are great songs, turns me on but think if the customers listen to it - it will piss them off.....then again, fortunate is running in a commercial for jeans of all things so may just do it

    Queen did a song....all instrumental at the end of a cd, like Star Spangled Banner. Good. Short.
    Also American woman, Lenny Kravitz or Hendrix is cool!
    And i got yeled at for singing "Bombs over baghdad" at the friggin hospital while working the desk. I was not even aware. Geez!
    I meant no harm, guess it's not in right now.
    Also Madonna..American pie would give a nice hint to all! Shorter of course.

    Attempting to avoid any political unpleasantries, while tainting my wife's Americana :

    As it was in the past, it can all be summed up with one song:

    [*]For what it's worth -Buffalo Springfield.
    "The elastic retreat rings the close of play as the last wave uncovers the newfangled way."

    Seconds by U2. Actually, there is an entire album by them called War. It's my personal favorite, and the whole Cd is about guess what?

    All Along the Watchtower by Hendrix or Dylan
