Bob, it's allowed -- you can "folk process" your own song!

And I really like your additional last verse

"dressed up in a soldier suit"
"doggone cute"
"Awaiting primed and ready just to use on me and you."

"Here at home our policies are tilted toward the rich
With big tax cuts and a deficit that's grown to be a bitch.
There's a plan to fix it and save both you and me:
Spend it all and take it from Social Security."

Your tweaking of the penultimate verse keeps the focus on the war -- now I just have to learn it and your newer last verse.

It's inspired -- too bad it's inspiration still drags on.
