This song is a tribute to the Hmong people from Laos, the Vietnam War, the CIA secret war, and one special lady in particular: (my wife).

The valiant Hmong sided with the west, helping to try to withstand the communist aggression.

Although the war was ultimately lost, (in Laos, anyway) most of the Hmong were 'rescued'.

This song was created in BIAB 2011, and went through several revisions. Previously known also as "The Ballad of Mayka Lee", "Soldiers Came", and "Loving Life".

Stand by for a real video.

If ever a man had it all, it would have to be me, and ooh I love you
