words and music by A1C George Herkert from Mountain Home USAF Base, Idaho.

George Herkert was one of the first singers at the Wagon. He led group singing at the first public meeting of the Wagon and although he has long since left the Air Force and Idaho this song of his remains with us.

You sent us off to fight this war:
BRING OUR BROTHERS HOME!
Now we don't want to fight no more!
BRING OUR BROTHERS HOME!

Bring 'em home,
Bring our brothers home.
Bring 'em home,
Bring our brothers home!

Nixon you're a bloody man,
BRING OUR BROTHERS HOME!
To make us fight in foreign lands.
BRING OUR BROTHERS HOME!

Bring 'em home,
Bring our brothers home.
Bring 'em home,
Bring our brothers home!

You say we're fightin' to be free.
BRING OUR BROTHERS HOME!
That ain't what it looks like to me!
BRING OUR BROTHERS HOME!

Bring 'em home,
Bring our brothers home.
Bring 'em home,
Bring our brothers home!
