  My life in the navy was a thrill

I never will be killed

My life experince has been fulfilled

Nobody was killed 

I introduced myself as Jill

I was shot and blood spills 

But i didn´t die and people said I have skills

I finally got home to Francisville 

But I found out my mom was ill

I gave my mom her pills 

When my mom got better I planned a life in the hills

The rest of my life would be a thrill

I will accept my fate whether I am alive or deceased

My life as a navy soldier is like thrill

&quot;You&#039;ve got to learn to move on, because life will move on. If you don&#039;t move on, you&#039;ll just end up in over your head.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Never regret anything because at the time, it was exactly what you wanted.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;We accept the love we think we deserve.&quot;
